You then wait for two good rains to moisten the soil once the Rainy season starts in July to plant. 

The other thing I notice and this goes from East Coast to west coast northern border to southern border is the poor have an affinity for red or black gauze like curtains.

BEST..Put down a tarp, or old carpet, then moistened the ceiling with a garden hose.

Re-moisten the sponge as needed.

You want to moisten the floor to open up the grains of the wood.  

If not, moisten a soft cloth with this solution and wipe the surface.

I advise against the additional cleaning because I fear that if you do it again you will only re-saturate/moisten possible soiled areas in the subfloor where there may or may not be pet urine.

messy job have done many of them heres a little help i hope. diff is a product used to remove wall paper spray a light coat on ceiling just to moisten it up if your celings have been painted your going to have a harder time to remove. so after you blade off all your ceilings put a skim coat of tapping mud on all your blade marks then you can textute two coats of flat wall paint will due the trick on new taxture if its an upscale home i suggest after your skim coat spray a coat of hamilton's prep coat before texturing then prime and pain i now its a long process but this is how you get the right results

Soil heavy with clay will most likely retain its shape in your hand, indicating high water concentration which is bad for foundations due to its tendency to shift around as it dries or moistens.

I hope I'm wrong, but is it a sort of gauze-like substance with a cracking residue underneath that's both stapled and glued to the floor?
