Concetta P on Jul 01, 2013Most economical way would be to make your own soil... vermiculture and composting... if you start now you'd prob have a good amount to add to your soil next yearHelpful Reply

KMS Woodworks on Jul 01, 2013Heavy mineral soils tend to compact more that organic rich soils...blending in more organics is the answer. This can be in the form of clipping, peat, compost. etc. You can work it in with a tiller, shovel or rake. The deeper and more evenly it is blended the better.Helpful Reply
