Why is sand bad for gardening?
Soil is made from three different size particles. Sand, Silt, and Clay. Clay is the smallest particle, and sand is the largest. Sand allows for fast drainage, but does not have good water and nutrient retaining capabilites. Some people may try to add sand to their clay soil to aid in drainage, but create a major problem.
