I am seeing full sun on the internet and the internet is always right:) I am wondering if I should lay in a foot of wood chips and then cover with 4-6" of sandy-loam soil. Then let it set and see if it goes acidic? Maybe taper it gradually down to 2 feet deep (of water). This might make a cool micro-environment in my area? I have read that wood-chip bioreactors remove nitrates, so maybe this area would end up nitrogen-poor the way pitcher plants like it? Might be a great experiment! There look to be different biotypes, so I need to see about sourcing the purple pitcher plants to improve my chances of success.
