Sanding dust

13 years ago

Hello. I have access to quite a continuous supply of sanding dust from a nearby millwork shop. I get approximately a 55 gallon bag weekly. It adds up.....quickly. I'm wondering if there's any use in the garden, either as a soil amendment, or weed suppressant. I understand it will probably make the soil more acidic. I also have a dump truck full of cow manure. I plan to add the sanding dust to the pile before I use it in the spring. Any thoughts about using this fine of a material in the garden? I believe it will break down more quickly than sawdust.
