Smart solutions for poor drainage
Constantly soggy soil can make it tough for most garden plants to survive. Use the ideas to fix the issue or work nicely with what you have. When you try to grow much of anything in a garden, you would hear the advice to give plants a well-drained spot. It is because the soil has tiny pore spaces holding the oxygen that roots require to stay healthy. If the soil is not well-drained, the pore spaces will be filled up with water leads to all kinds of plant-growing challenges, including:
- Fungus growth
- Disease
- Rot
However, there is good news. Some plants will thrive in wet and constantly moist soil. There are a few landscape tactics to use to enhance poorly drained soil. So, growing a larger variety of trees, perennials, and shrubs can be worryless.
How wet is the soil?
Getting to know better soggy soil is the first thing to do. Determine which yard areas get frustratingly wet and how long they stay that way. Consider the soil’s moisture level throughout the seasons. Also, how quickly water dissipates after the big rain and how often the areas stand in water.
A simple test used in the landscape trade is to gauge the particular soil drainage. Digging a hole 18 inches deep and a wide area of 12 inches in the wet area to fill the hole with water. The water level dropped steadily and must be drained within 24 hours. If there is standing water after a day do the same test several weeks later for determining the drainage issue or a year-round wet soil challenge.
