Hi Guys just read this Quote while researching how to improve clay soil quote"Furthermore, according to the Puyallup Research and Extension Center at Washington State University, gypsum negatively affects the mycorrhizae that enhance root health and development."

Very interesting - no more gypsum for me.!

I don't use gypsum anymore. Never seemed to really make any positive difference and possibly made the soil more salty.
