fall garden

so it is already past time to put in a winter or fall garden if you are going to have one
but I have a problem this year, the soil badly needs fixed,
here is the spinach that I planted about a month ago in native soil,

and it is only about 2 inches tall now,
I know that it does fantastic this time of year in potting soil, same with the turnips and beets,

so I think I need to fix all the soil this fall and not even try for a fall garden this year...
it is kind of sad, but if I don't fix the soil now, it is not going to get better on its own.
so I am readying the cover crop seeds, likely get to plant them in about a week.
