Frequently asked gardening related questions
Maintaining soil structure organically involves practices that minimise disturbance and promote natural processes. Adopt "no-dig" methods, which allow earthworms and fungal networks to create stable soil aggregates. Keep the soil covered with mulch or cover crops to protect it from the compacting force of rain and sun. Incorporate plenty of organic matter, which binds soil particles and improves tilth. Avoid walking on wet soil, which can lead to compaction.
