Just moved to new house- back yard has extremely hardpan compressed
earth. Its desert-sandy-no clay but really tough ground. Dug holes with
jackhammer maybe 18" deep by 18 wide- still very slow drainage. OK to
plant 5 gallon size plants? smaller? Its a low rainfall area but still
dont know. Anybody know about this stuff?
Sounds like the very first thing you need to do is add about a foot of
compost. A few inches at a time of course. And till it in.
