Advice wanted: Help me turn this play structure into a garden! Hi r/gardening, this play structure was installed by the prior owners of my home. It's really nice, and my kids have enjoyed it for the past few years, but they'll outgrow it in the next year or two. I plan to give away the play structure and turn the area it's in into a garden. The area is currently covered in a tarp-like plastic landscape fabric (I know, ew), with rubber pellets on top. So I'll need to pull all of that out. What's underneath, I am not sure. They clearly leveled the area, so it could be sand or dirt under there. Weeds do pop out of the landscape fabric from time to time, so I assume that whatever it is, it's not completely inhospitable, but even if it's soil, it'll probably need heavy amending to sustain a vegetable garden. I'd love to hear from anyone who's done something similar before - is there anything I should be aware of before I start? Anything that's likely to be more difficult than I'm anticipating? Any thoughts about how best to rehab the soil? Thanks in advance! Originally by u/AggravatedCattery on Reddit: https://tinyurl.com/2xuugelw
