What can I do to have a lush garden and green grass when the area I just moved into is saturated with sand? I live in Gilbert, SC. I also seem to have a very very bad gnat problem in warm weather that is driving me to sell my new home!!! LOL!!! Are the gnats this bad because of the sand? If I can find a way to plant grass and flowers will the gnats go away?
I have access to a dump truck and tractor so getting some healthy soil is no problem if need be. I just dont know how to proceed. Thanks for any help.
