The partying stopped, but my lawn got salted and
although there are no totally bald spots, almost all of my shrubbery is
yellowing at the base and my grass is very thin. Is there any way to
neutralize the salt?


Of possible use:
Apply powdered gypsum and lots of water

(I hope you have good drainage.)


It's decomposed granite. Drains like a sieve unfortunately.

Thanks very much for replying and I'll take a look at powdered gypsum. 80)
