Turning concrete and clay into green things!
Until recently I had an area at the back of my garden which used to be
a patio but which I would prefer to be vegetables. So I have duly removed the concrete and hardcore and am now left with a compacted clay subsoil which I want to get back to life. This is a serious clay so it it very compacted and very effective at getting waterlogged but from what I have read clay although hard to work should be fertile. So far I have double dug the ground and added sharp sand (about 50 - 100 Kg / sq.m) and composted manure (about 200 l / sq.m). What else should I do to get this to something that I can grow on JB |
