Thanks, here is the plan that we came up with.
I am sending her some of my tillage radish seeds and she is going to try them to see if they can even grow in that soil. I think that corn would have been a great idea since it is such a heavy feeder but she already purchased some large pots and filled them with new bagged soil and dug them into the raised bed so that they look like they are growing in there. I am suggesting planting some tillage radishes around the pots in the rest of the "suicide soil" and see if they will grow over the summer. Then if they do live, she can remove them in the fall and plant them all over the garden for the winter. In the spring she will remove the radishes and about half of the old soil and replace it. |
