Question
We have your basic clay earth in our backyard. I want to amend the soil. What would you recommend I amend it with? Just regular planting mix that you sell? Or should I add lime or some other soil additives like chicken manure.....what is your secret recipe? And is it better than the Colonel's?

Answer
Forest Mulch Plus, Forest Mulch Plus, Forest Mulch Plus! This is a longer lasting blend of organic materials that also contains some chicken manure (not finger likkin' good). This mixed with Gypsum will help break down and loosen the clay. Keep in mind that one application of any product will not change the soil indefinitely. You should get in the habit of applying the Forest Mulch Plus as a top-dressing twice a year to continue to work into the soil and help keep it from reverting to it's natural (and heavy) state.
