I think I'm going to burn, this plot has been idle for such a long time there is a very thick thatch of dead undergrowth that would be hard to deal with without burning, I will go at it very carefully thanks

Yes that may be a good idea.. thanks

thanks guys, I know i'm going to have to burn,makes my wife shudder theres about 40 acres of marsh grass next door i've gotta be real careful, I'll get a soil sample this weekend
