Yeah GA is not too fun to dig in. I have a loamy top layer with clay, chalky, silty soil. Its weird - some spots have lots of each so I literally have to dig a hole and see how the water drains before I plant any bananas.
I'm on a wooded river with open grass front and back yard so I have a variety. sometimes I have to use a mattock to bust up chalky looking rock before it will drain decent.
After about a year the planting areas break down some and loosen up because I add composted materials to the planting holes when I put them into the ground.
