I mixed some small pea gravel that the hubby uses at work in the part of the bed that i've already finished.My hubby works doing concrete construction and adds things to the concrete for
(looks maybe).This pea gravel was tumbled or a river rock type of pea gravel it's very smooth,small and a nice brown & tan color,it's also expensive.
I don't have any of it left so now i need to find something to add to the compost to assist in drainage. I know not to use play sand,i am just trying to figure out what size grit,sand etc... i need to use. If i go to the feed store is turkey grit the biggest or is it big enough? The crushed oyster shells was just a lucky find,if it's big enough then great but i'm sure it's more expensive.
If i go to Lowes what exactly do i ask for? Last time i explained what i needed it for and they still said they only had play sand??
Where in the store is it? In case the store's aren't set up the same, what other products is it sold with.
I hope i was more clear this time. I have a sedum 'tri-color',2 jovibarba heuffelii hybrids, 4 semp's, ('oddity','tectorum','green apple' and arachnoideum 'cebenese') they need to be planted soon so i need to get at least one side of the bed built up & finished.I am putting them on the side that is on a slope,the top is very flat.I want to put maybe ice plants or something that doesn't need the soil to be as fast draining as semp's.
