upgrading the DIRT..

Stirred in some play sand.....





ran the mix through a screen..



filters out the junk..



gives a nice texture, light, breathable and easy to burrow.



The seal of approval...

I love it.. I am amazed that you haven't just given up having a living room and made that into your Sav room.

Re: upgrading the DIRT..

The taller grass from the woods will die from the heat in about 2 weeks. I seeded the new dirt, so new grass will begin, but it too will die from the heat.

The roots however will knit together and bind the soil.

I need to get some tropical seed of grass species that tolerate 90 degrees all day long.
