Alan, I didn't do anything too special. I put them out in my "intensive Fan garden" pretty early, I think, with black plastic mulch and a lot of manure in the hole. Then I stood back and watched 'em heat up. And I agree with you on the soil. What mine lacks in redness, though, it makes up for in clayness. Every spring I try to "condition" the soil a little: that means dumping a wheelbarrow or so of clay into the alley behind my house and replacing it with peat moss or compost. Another 100 years, and, well, who knows?? John
