Similar ratio of 1:4. Been using ALL that leftover fines to level the yard. To me the biggest issue is the amount of work, time and sore arms to get just a gallon of usable sand. John Austin, TX That's basically the issue. I'm really bumming because a product I've had really good luck with has changed. I can't think of the brand name, but it's a 2-part bedding for patios--larger (1") chunks of crushed stone, and a finer stone. The finer stone, once sifted, yielded about 50/50 usable stone. The pieces were about 1/8-1/4" and pointed. Nice medium gray color. Now the finer grade is just garbage in a bag of silt. :-( Craig Cowing NY Zone 5b/6a ************************************************** ************************** **** ++++Sponsored, in part, by Evergreen Gardenworks++++ ************************************************** ************************** **** -- The IBC HOME PAGE & FAQ: http://www.internetbonsaiclub.org/ -- +++++ Questions?
