Puzzler - lots of buried socks - why?
Ok, here is a question for all of you gardeners who have been around the block. Why would someone bury socks?
My friend bought a house that has two raised beds and lots of potted plants. She found lots of socks buried in both. No other kinds of cloth.
My first thought was maybe they are being used as "browns" in composting. My second thought was some sort of slow release or animal control.
Have you ever heard of someone burying socks in their raised beds and plant pots?
