I would plant shorter rows of radishes, lettuce, beets, and spinach but plant them more frequently...so that I would have a much more sustained supply of these plants instead of ten pounds of radishes all at once.
I would put the trellis in for the sugar snap peas BEFORE planting the peas so that I don't have to work around them, thus taking the chance of breaking them before they climb. (I'm going to do this for the beans, but I'm afraid I am planting them pretty late in the season).
I would mix the carrot seeds with sand and "hand plant" the seeds when it was NOT windy.
I would start EVERYTHING where they have exposure to full sun from the get-go...I guess that means I would start everything in a greenhouse. I have lost or stunted so many starts to sunburn.
I would hill potatoes every day so that the dirt grows gradually around the base of the stem. I would also plant the potatoes in a short trench instead of on a hill.
I would make sure that the hot wire worked before putting pigs in the pen...and I would make sure that my pellet gun was loaded and in the bedroom in case the pig still figured out how to escape.
But even with all of these things, I would still DO it all again. The revisions would just make it that much better.
Oh, I may add to this list as some of the things are annual events.
