Ronnie,

Constant foot traffic in growing beds will compact any substance.  If you used
only Pro-Mix, and routinely walked on it, it would compact.

I try real hard to work from the sides only, in a flower bed.  If the bed is
too wide to reach from the sides, I add a small stepping stone here and there,
in with my flowers, so I can stand in the same spot each time I tend the hard
to reach sections.  When the flowers fill in, the stones are generally
covered.
