Intro & Test

Hello List!

More than anything else (right now anyway), this is a test to see if I can
FINALLY write to the list.  I subscribed sometime ago and tried posting some
questions, but never saw my posts show up...maybe this time will be
different.

After a long 15 years without having a veggie garden I'm finally in a
situation where I can put one in.  Like my last garden a decade plus ago,
I've decided to go SqFt.  I hope to tap into the knowlege now available on
this list and on the web - something that didn't exist back in the early
80's.  Luckily, then I had Mel's book and the encouragement offered by the
several shows he did on tv (PBS?).

I've already planned my garden - six 4x4 beds, and one 4x12 which I plan to
use for my verticals.  Hoping to take pics and share my successes on a web
page later on.  I do have a question.

In Mel's recipe for the Perfect Soil Mix he uses sand.  What kind of sand
are we talking about here?  Simple question, but one that has bothered me
everytime I look at that page.

Thanks, and I hope this makes it through this time.  And thanks to Mel for
his first book, SFG.
