Hello,

Interesting pictures. Some questions:
- how much land have you tilled?

4 acres in production

- where are you?

central North Carolina

- is this for market/truck gardening?

Yes. Local sales.

- what is your method of weed control - cultivation/flame?

Cultivation with tractor implements, 99%, scything, hand weeding & hoeing 1%
so far. I expect
I will have to rely on manual methods much more in coming seasons as I wil
have weeds mixed with crops.

Please let us know.
Thanks.

What do you grow?
