In segment 4 Joey and Answer garden questions

problem Growing onions and brussel sprouts

Q:We have a slope in our little backyard where I want to improve it for gardening. My husband says we need a tiller to till it up. The previous owner planted hostas and wintergreen ground cover. The ground cover is the problem. A neighbor gave me ground up leaves and grass clippings to start a compost pile 2 yrs ago. It's not enough. Area 40× 20. Its @ a 30 degree angle.
A:We think tilling would cause erosion. We would turn it over with a garden fork or shovel and garden there in the specific area where you want to plant. Tilling would cause the soil to erode down.

Q: Brandon from Philadlpha says have a question I hope you can help me out with. I started some tomatoes perhaps too soon here and I've already had to move from a 4 inch to a 6 inch pot. The plants are getting too big and I'm 6 weeks away from putting it into the ground. How can I slow down the plant a bit?
A: To start with no matter what you do you are going to have very large tomato seedlings. The best advice I can give is keep the plants cool. if you put them somewhere where it is not cold but cool this should slow their growth as we see this in the spring we plant them out early it cool days and cold nights and they do not grow much.
