I don't know, maybe I misunderstood what I read back then. When I gardened out in the main garden that is no more - I made the soil as light as possible. When starting seeds and potting up to the party cup size - I have gone out of my way to pack the mix. It worked really well, but I guess that I was doing it wrong?
You learn something new every day. Sometimes it's right, and sometimes it's wrong. I will try light packing when I start the tomato seeds in June for the fall garden. I do appreciate the advice - it makes sense.
