;...that is how this video comes off.

An unpretentious and down-home short video that works.

Thumbs up

Gardening is an effort and the challenges are huge.

Your red dry claylike looking soil is no more appealing to me then our horrible sugarsand here.

Yet we persevere and keep growing! Smiling

Most of our soil is actually sugar sand, too, but we do have a few spots here and there of hard red clay soil. There's no in-between!!
