What soil amendments should I use for fall bulbs?
As I prepare for planting my fall bulbs, I'm curious about soil health. My family and I practice organic farming, and I'm keen on maintaining our soil's integrity. I've tested the soil in my garden, and it’s generally clay-heavy, which can lead to poor drainage. In the past, I’ve mixed in some compost and well-rotted manure to improve texture, but I’m not sure if that's enough for bulb planting. Should I consider specific amendments like sand or perlite to enhance drainage? How about pH levels – do I need to test that as well? I'm looking for a well-rounded approach that supports bulb growth while also maintaining organic standards. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
