Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comI put in microorganisms in soil this year. If I solarize, will it kill them? For many years, I’ve had a terrible problem with tomato blight. Will solarizing help that? Thanks for your help.

1 Comment To "solarizing soil"
