I have read in my books that when you freshly fork over or dig an area, you should then walk all over it to settle it back down again. However, I have read in other books that if you work on heavy soil, you don't really need to as given a short space of time, the ground will weigh itself down again. Well, I have heavy soil, and I need to dig regularly to keep the ground friable and soft enough to plant in - it is ideal ground for brassicas but can be rubbish for carrots! Do you stomp all over your freshly turned bed, or not? Should I be stomping all over my freshly turned beds??
