A few years ago when I started gardening I ordered some yards of bedding soil from a bulk company, it wasn’t until the rainy season that I realized it was just mostly sand ( my native soil is extremely sandy which is why I made the beds in the first place). This year I have enough budget to refill only half the 1ft high beds with better soil. I’m in debate if I should 1. Remove half the height of my beds to 6inches from 1ft and fill that all with good soil OR 2. I remove the top half 6 inches and put the good new soil on top of the sandy soil that’s already in there. My current in bed soil can be planted in but I can’t really say the plants are thriving, plus after many years of mulching with leaves I still barely see any worms and such.
