I think the dough needs to rest for about an hour before shaping so the gluten can relax properly. If it feels too sticky I add a little more flour but try not to overwork it. Water temperature matters too room temp works best. I also find a bit more salt than the recipe says brings out the flavor nicely. Check it a few minutes before the recommended baking time since ovens vary quite a bit between models.

For the raised bed I think east to west orientation gives the best sun for vegetables. The soil mix I use is one part compost with one part vermiculite and two parts topsoil. This drains well but holds enough moisture for good growth. Adding slow-release fertilizer at planting gives solid results. A layer of mulch on top helps control weeds and keeps soil temperature consistent throughout the season.
