Peach drooling

My understanding is that it is the velocity of the water that does the damage, aka washes the soil away. Have you tried the carpet trick? Peg carpet up from and over the head. Ideally this protects the soil at the head from being washed away and eroded area expanding. Hopefully by the time the carpet rots away, grass has established strongly. Carpet will also hold soil on top to help grass, etc, establish. am doing sheet composting (literally with old sheets!) on the flatter areas of erosion. i know that will work. the bad one i refer to here really needs filling up, however, i think there would be usefulness in using fabric (held by wire, probably) over the actual soil before filling with other stuff. (or just getting machinery in like farm1 says). kylei |
