I've done vegetable gardens for many years. I had the best garden when my father came to visit and he worked in it every day. I miss those times.
I planted a garden in Delaware last year and as it was growing we got a 15" rain and it was under water for 7 days. It dried out and another 4" rain again put it under water. It took 8 days to get it dry that time.
But I'm going to fill in the low spots so the water can't stay around and try it again.

that’s a LOT of rain!
so I guess that’s my first tip: tend to the garden every day….
