Hi ! I would like to ask you what is soil conditioner?

[gardenmagik]

A soi conditioner is anything that will improve the quality of the soil. Here in Ga we have lots of red clay. It packs very tightly because it is shaped just like a plate (and is the smallest soil particle). So, in order to make it easier for plant roots to dig thru the soil, we add things like tiny gravel, ground up pine bark mulch, sand, gypsum, egg shells, coffee grounds, etc.. It seperates the clay particles, so, It "conditions" the soil. Great question,Thank you!

Hey guys I am trying to see what is your advice about tilling if the oil to our country is reduced for any reason. Other than manual-on small gardens? Thx Benjamin

See that wooden posts for a fence .. in a few years and they will deteroriate very quickly especially rot from watering.
