has anyone worked around this for a tree? i dug down almost 3 feet and still barely draining at an inch per hour. is it time to give up? i did dig a chimney, about four feet deep, but haven't trenched the top yet. (the caliche starts just a few inches down--now i understand why i couldn't get decent grass in that part of the yard) i planted a watermelon hill at the top of that thinking the tap roots may help keep everything moving.
i've dealt with this in other parts of our yard but it was not this bad. there were three layers with some chunks the size of oranges. back of the yard this time...trying to plant a plum tree.
