And I couldn't find an answer. I put cardboard down on the outside of my garden to kill off the grass, so it would be easier to till. No my question is, we are expecting rain this weekend or so, blah blah, can I till the cardboard in the soil? Will this help or do nothing? It'll get all mushy and stuff if we get rain, I need a bigger garden spot and I would like to get a jump on it before my pumpkins/squash/watermelon start winding their vines around the grass even more than now.

NO, don't till, plant thru it!! by tilling, you'll give all those weed/grass seeds light that they need to grow. put your soil amendments on top of the cardboard, or not, and plant right thru it. mother nature and the fishworms will take care of the rest--and no weeds. TRY IT_IT WORKS--dont work so hard--

O.K., yes Ceresone, you are so right. When I answered I was sticking too much to the question which was CAN I till and the answer to that is yes, but I agree with you the better option is probably to just plant through it and let the worms do the tilling.
