RE: soil make-up


To tell you the truth I am still quite confused on this issue. My first
AG, last year on this soil was 408. Having only done this once I cannot
tell whether I had a good year or a bad year. I don't know what the
potential is where I grow (Wash. DC). I read of Sherrie LaRue dumping a
bunch of sand in a plot that she felt was too rich. I believe it grew
her l0l6 last year.Meisner, Hackney, Anderson, Eaton, come on and help
me out here.
