There’s no sure number to determine how you can take your dead soil to alive and thriving. In ideal conditions, the soil is under a constant cycle of nutrients leaving and coming back. But the more we take from the soil, the more it degenerates. Vice versa, the more we put into the soil, the faster we will regenerate it. Other factors such as climate conditions, moisture, soil use, and native plants will also play a part. With plenty of amendments, you’ll see your soil get better with every passing year.
