Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

 Ok ok I know I am a little behind on responding to this subject but I just got back from vacation. I had to screen my soil before planting my potatoes because it was full of gravel and other debris (used to be part of the driveway). Anyhow, instead of going out and purchasing materials to build a screen I used my good old kitchen strainer. After I was done, I washed it out. Its that simple. It worked wonderful and I have never seen my potatoes do so well!!

>Hey!  As a new sqft gardener, we had to get creative...... we were trying to do this on a shoestring budget.  We started from a lawn, and we did use a soil screen.  Hope I'm trying to describe what you're asking about, a sort of a "sifter" for the soil to get rid of the rocks, twigs, roots, construction debris left, stuff like that.
