I was missing the secret sand last year. I'm sure that was my downfall. Not this year. I have plenty this year. I got this sand two years ago (my first year growing) I needed it for the nasty hard clay here plus I knew that it has special properties. It couldn't be used for construction sand because it deteriorated. This is because it has lots of calcite, gypsum and other soluble minerals. I figured it might be good for my patch. Then this winter I was doing research on humic and fulvic acid. Come to find out it is derived from lignite coal veins. Well it just so happens that the creek (sand draw) cuts several coal veins. So this sand should have some ancient organics from this also. We will see.
