I guess my biggest problem is the pine sand .it drys everything out. It is very fine and will not allow water penetrate well and when it doas it drys super quick I usual dig out trenches to plant in . In the summer . Fill it with top soil and by the end of the season everything is hard to keep hydrated .maby mixing in some peet and couce sand wood help this.
Thank you from ca.
