Default Re: Rocky, clay soil

Break Time.

Yes, I thought about relocating it to parts of the yard where I can use. I just don't want to mess up my grass with a bunch of gravel and clachice (Clay).

Nate, does look like your clay is heavier than mine. During the summer were pretty arid. Especially this summer. We've broken 100 F temp records. French drain worked well for you. I have three 10-gallons and two five-gallon containers I need to plant. That's why the hole I'm digging looks like a shallow grave. LOL!!! Take a look here...I'm trying to hide some compost piles in the first pic.

Second picture is for an idea of what kinda of space I'm dealing with.

Third, shows a one-gallon container for scale.

Fourth, is the hole again gives you an idea of what soil I'm dealing with.


Back to digging! Will check in soon!
