Re: How do you sterilize soil?

I have heard of people putting the soil in black garbage bags in the hot sun for two or three days. I don't know what all the who ha is about sterile soil. As soon as you pot something and put it out in the air, it is subject to about 10 million airborne particles, verything from cosmic dust and radiation to pollon and about 25 or 30 strains of yeast. Sterile, Hah.
