SOIL or SPOIL

How to plant.. anything

The Soil is the most important part.
And apparently, you can't just dump a heap of it and expect it to grow, let alone survive. I was informed and demonstrated to today that you have to actually MIX the new soil [aka fertilizer] with the existing soil! Now why would you do that?

It's the same reason why we can't just consume loads of one vitamin. Even if vitamins are good for you, you can't just eat one and expect to be healthy. You need a balanced diet of a variety of foods! It's the same for plants too; if you don't mix the soils, it will not grow, it will die :(
I learned an important lesson today.

Too much of a good thing, even if it's good, is bad.
