    That's very easy, will not work over here in Cape Town, South Africa, we have the tough invasive Kikuya grass. I had to dig it out 24 inches deep, put in concrete barriers, sift the soil and still it come through any little spot it can. Sometimes I wish I was born in the USA.

    Mine is pure compacted river rock, sand, ash (St. Helens) and heavy silt/loess that is packed with minerals but 100% void of nitrogen and organic matter. It rapidly compacts, and all organic material rots with some lethal fungi species. So I'm double-digging out rock, and having to bake it (after removing amazing critters). I am opting to add gypsum and more sand along with the double dig. I'm hoping this will reduce rot I'm seeing. Every bulb I planted last year rotted out.😢 Do you think adding these will reduce the incidence of disease via aeration???

    I'm confused. Why not just put the top soil of the first trench back, rather than digging a second trench?

      Same thoughts.

    • @Hobbyist56

      Because the soil in the second trench gets shifted into the first trench, the soil from the first trench gets added to the last trench you dig, since its soil will be shifted forward

      It’s easier to transfer topsoil over from space to space than to load it into a bucket and back onto the ground repeatedly for a large area.

    that broad fork looks too awkward to be useful to me id just use a pick

    • @houthakker6717
      @houthakker6717 6 лет назад

      those 2 tools have completely different uses. good luck sticking your pick in there 5 times instead of one broadfork .
      either way just using a digging fork to shovel out a row of dirt and tnen loosen the second layer is much faster then digging it out switching tools then go in a second time after.

      Oh you'd be surprised what a pleasure a broadfork can be. If you buy one, get slender tines and not too wide. Tines that are designed not to break are a plus. I also use it to open places where water doesn't soak in well enough, just to poke holes.

    Hello! This way to the 21st century, please: leave the soil alone, AND keep your hands off artificial fertilizers. Thank you
