I have a small garden 30meter square. I dig down and find that the top

40cm
is just plain
sand ,little or no clay or silt. Any crop I plant, the soil is only good

for
one crop, next generation
are stunted and will not grow. I assume that I have exhuasted the

nutrients
for that crop.
What do I do?
Cart off the top soil (in this case sand, sand) and replace it with a

lorry
load of garden soil, or could
I do something else?
I have access to limitless amount of dry leaves throughout the year to use
if I choose to.
Carting off the sand and replace it with garden soil is rather expensive
here in Singapore.
