- My driveway, which abuts my garden, has no drainage. A friend suggested digging
- a dry well 30' from the edge of the garden in the lawn so that it drains away
- from the garden (wouldn't want all that oil and salt from the road underneath
- the tomatoes). My questions are these:
- 1. what type of pvc should I use?
- 2. How deep and wide should the dry well be?
- 3. What kind of fill should I use?
- 4. Can it be done by hand (and back) ?
- Any advice would be much appreciated.
