When your soil is wet like this, don't work it. Don't weed. Don't dig. Don't plant. Don't till.
Don't walk around on it. Working wet soil, especially if it has a high clay content, makes for hard soil. Hard soil. Think blacktop, concrete, rocks. Hard soil.
Just take a moment and thank the Father for the rain and go back inside and bake something, or read a book or look over Mom's comp. list. Maybe you can work in your soil tomorrow if it dries out a bit.
