soil depth
I've realised that my previous question wasn't clear, but thanks
Dwayne for your reply. My paving slabs cover an area about 10 feet by 6 feet and I'm not sure what's under them but I feel it's probably not soil. It may be rubble. I want to dig it out and have a planting area but don't know what to fill it with. I'll have to buy some topsoil but I assume I don't want to completely fill it with bought good quality, topsoil as this will be expensive and a waste. It will be about 3 feet deep. Do I want a foot of loose rubble and then manure and soil? Should I fill it and then water it thoroughly until it sinks and then top it up again? I don't mind spending a bit of money because I want to end up with an area of good soil unlike the heavy stuff in the rest of the garden. |
