I rototilled in both the Spring and Fall, usually worked in leaves/compost in the fall. Garden, 80' by 120', would stand 10" to 12" proud after Fall workout. I would till it 3 or 4 times in the Spring and Fall adding some sheep pellets or triple 12 before planting. I have to admit I gave up that garden for smaller gardens about 20 years ago. This last year 2022 was the first without a garden of some kind since 1977 - I really miss having a garden, I enjoyed all aspects of it from working the ground, planting seeds/plants, harvesting and eating the produce......weeding not so much.
