Default Re: Bananas in the sandy soil?

I back fill my holes with biochar. It's a more stable structure in the soil and helps keep the organic material in place. Nematodes thrive in sand. Brazil has some of the poorest soil on earth and only lives from forest recycling. For this reason I plant beneficial trees to maintain organic material. Moringa and strawberry tree are good ones.
