Desert soils can be very low in organics. This is why amendments are added to landscapes. Amendments will benefit the soil structure or soil chemistry or both! Learn what it means to amend the soil and differences in soil amendments and what they can and can't do. Learn how composts differ in how  rich in nutrients and why, how they are made and which to use and when.  All in this episode of Desert Horticulture.
