Can the rock grindings from well drilling be used on vegetable and flower
beds? I read that asparagus in particular benefits from an application of
rock phosphate. Would grindings from well drilling be a substitute for bags
of rock phosphate from the local supplier? The well driller has said that
most of the rock is a type of granite. Thanks much for any help/advice
offered
