I’m new to gardening in this area and started a new vegetable garden plot in 7b in NC. I added several inches of manure from our farm onto it and my husband used a tractor disk to till the garden and break up the aged piles of manure. I planted my cucumber, peppers, tomatoes, and did a lot of seeds. The dirt was really hard and compact and I hard a hard time digging in it. The manure didn’t get tilled in so it’s just sitting on top of the hard dirt some still in solid piles. I thought once I watered it everything would loosen and break up but now it’s just all wet and still the same. Will it still grow? I’m worried I planted too soon. Should I pull up my current plants and rent a tiller and till it even though I planted seeds and start over or will it grow? I’ve been loosing sleep worrying about my garden not growing.
