I learned garden...Thank you for your note, Barbara! I learned gardening in the Mid West on the greatest soil on earth. Then, learned all about Black Gumbo, most of N. Texas' soil. This has been quite the experience farming on what feels like the beach! LOL <br /><br />And I had no idea that the heavy rains could affect the PH either. It's always a learning experience, isn't it? <br /><br />Keep up the good work! Thank you for reading the blog. I'll be posting updates as I work with the test results and restoration.

I've also gathered soil samples for testing (I do this every year.) I did not realize the rains might have changed the pH, though. Appreciate that insight. <br /><br />My best to all our farm and gardening friends. May we learn from all this so we know better how to react to what nature brings in the future.Barbara Gosnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11841766857223593830noreply@blogger.com
