New patch
Posted: Tue Jan 24, 2017 3:50 pm
Hi everyone new bloke here,
I'm planning to make a veg patch of about 6'x 6'. For the last umpteen years the area has been covered with concrete flags.
I've lifted these and found that the soil which looks OK has a thin layer of builders sand spread on it. My question to you experts is is
does all the sand have to be removed or can I dig it in with the topsoil ? One further thing, it looks as though mice have been using the flags as a covered walkway to another part of the garden. Any suggestions please other than getting a cat .
Thank you,
Rhubarbstick
