ASK THE GARDEN GURU?

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DIRT AND SOIL?

ANOTHER GREAT QUESTION!

For this weeks archived show from previous years show regarding dirt and soil, the Garden Guru said that New Mexico does not have bad soil but it’s pretty void of any organic matter in it so — that’s where we need to start.

If you’re just planting an area in your yard or garden for the first time and all you have is the existing native soil then what Payne’s recommends is that you mix the native soil with organic compounds — meaning peat moss or compost or mulch — any of these will work. Mix the soil at about a 50-50 ratio. Listen to the Garden Guru’s show and find out what Lynn recommends to do if you are not getting good results with what you are doing?
