Girlies are looking much healthier now :

Attachment 284238

Someone on another forum (boooo !) told me this :

"have you scraped the top layer of compost off? you need to top dress that back on otherwise roots are going to get damaged."

but they haven't explained why. I googled and found that top-dressing is a fertilisation method, and that the topsoil should only be scraped off if it has gotten very wet and other things ahve started growing in it.

Is there another reason to be scraping off my topsoil ?


Thanks,

nibs.
