It's been many years since I frequented the massive OGL, but yes, I
actually do remember her, and I concur that without a substantial amount
of water, there is nothing you can do.. If you are gardening in clay
containers, just replace the containers. I suppose you could set up
some kind of leach system in a bathtub, but that would be a real pain.
