East Facing UK Garden + Clay
"David E. Ross" wrote in message
If the clay is treated with gypsum to make it more porous and if the top foot of clay is tilled with new top soil, the interface between the top soil and the clay subsoil will be blurred. Clay is often rich in nutrients other than nitrogen. With careful use of fertilizer and with infrequent but deep watering, plant roots will grow down below that blurred interface into the clay. Given the amount of rain the UK has had over the past summer, watering is probably not really needed. In fact it's possible that this area could end up as I suggested - like a bog garden. |
