What soil amendments improve the health of a Japanese garden?
As I dig deeper into the specifics of my Japanese garden, I'm keen to understand more about the soil health around my plants. I’ve noticed some areas have compacted soil, which I know can hinder root growth and water infiltration. I've been amending it with compost, but I'm curious if there are Japanese-specific soil amendments or techniques that might enhance the overall health of my garden. From my experience, I've found that healthy soil contributes significantly to plant vigor, but I want to ensure I'm backing it up with the right strategies. Any suggestions on soil amendments that have worked well in a Japanese garden context?
