If soil drains well, till in lava sand, corn gluten, alfalfa meal, and sugar (4 lbs/1,000 sq ft) or dry molasses. For clay/sand, add bark mulch and loam. Till 3 inches amendments 6 inches deep. Lay sod (don’t roll) or plug; water well. Till weeds in—if not seeded, they compost. Sugar feeds microbes; rich soil suppresses weeds. Cedar bark mulch repels insects. Septic/well safe.
