Getting Garden Started Thread

[swamp snorkler]

Yesterday I tilled up a 25'x6' wide patch of grass. I intend to surround it with cinder blocks buried halfway down and create a "raised box" garden. I will work it with the tiller every day after work with the tiller till this weekend when I set my cinder blocks in place.
I intend on growing;

-Zucchini Squash- (Enterprise) I've been very successful in the past with this, I'll also probably just dig a couple holes and plant 2 or 3 plants about 3 weeks apart
-Cucumbers- (Dasher 2 variety), using a 16' length of cattle fence as a trellis
-Cucumbers- (Calypso variety) for pickling
-Tomatoes- (Talladega's) for slicing
-Tomatoes- (Golden Cherry) for salads


In the holes of the cinder blocks I plan on doing
-Strawberries- for the kids to eat off the vine
Herbs will be
-Mint-
-Rosemary-
-Basil-
-Thyme-
-Shallots-
-Cilantro-
-Parsley-
-Marigolds- to deter insects
-Nasturtium- to deter insects

In the voids I will try some lettuce growing and I'm looking for tips and suggestions on that.

So, other than tilling it every day for a week should I do anything else to have the soil ready for when I'm ready to plant?
