    Hi

    Our Allotments have very sandy soil

    What is the best way of incorperaing organic matter, do I just lay it on top or mix it in.

    Hi CarrotHead
    My allotment is sandy and it works just fine to lay it on top, especially if it is already wet underneath, it helps to keep the moisture in and reduce the need to water.

    I garden on sandy soil and I find its better if its not disturbed too much and can retain moisture extremely well if mulched on the top.
