Bad soil? Easy way to make it better (organic technique). [View all]

Plant radishes and lettuce about every month. You won't get much produce in the winter months (although you could be surprised), but both produce wide fibrous root systems (especially lettuce) and that builds the "fluff" of organic material. I did that with rock and sand in NH and did it with clay and shale in PA. Both gardens reached the point of "just put a shovel in it" within 5 years. The seeds are cheap.
