Sandy Amateur Instant

A thick layer of mulch keeps the roots cool and prevents the sun from baking your soil dry.

Mix in plenty of organic matter like compost or well-rotted manure to help hold onto moisture.

Sand is the enemy of lenses! Use a UV filter and never change your lens while standing in a breeze.

Starting a garden with sandy soil? Don't let the "light" texture fool you—it’s both a blessing and a challenge for the amateur grower. Sandy soil is easy to dig and warms up fast in the spring, but it loses water and nutrients just as quickly.

Use the ripples in the sand as "leading lines" to draw the eye toward the ocean.

Shoot just after sunrise or before sunset to avoid harsh shadows on the dunes.

Go for drought-tolerant stars like Lavender, Cosmos, or Sedum that love the sharp drainage.
