Short of getting a soil sample analysis, can anyone give me some guesses about the following situation?
I have an area at the top of a slope that has been covered with a woodpile for over 10 years. The logs on the bottom layer that touch the soil have largely decomposed and I am going to throw them away as I clear off the rest of the pile. The soil surface is nice and dark and humusy from the decomposed wood. Yes, I also plan to wear gloves as it looks like ideal brown recluse breeding territory.
Would this be a good spot to plant daffodils? Or do you think it would be too rich? Or maybe too depleted of nitrogen from the decomposition process?
Any success stories for similar locations?
