Additionally, does the type of grass or the climate of the region play a role in determining the optimal soil for this purpose? Lastly, could you provide some recommendations for soil brands or types that have proven to be effective for top dressing lawns?

Hello, I'm curious about the best type of soil to fill holes in my yard. I've noticed that some areas have sunk in or have become uneven over time, and I'd like to level them out. What kind of soil should I use for this purpose? Is there a specific type of soil that's better suited for filling holes in a yard, or is it okay to use a general-purpose soil mix? I'd appreciate any advice you can offer on this matter. Thank you!

I'm curious, would 2 cubic feet of soil actually be enough to fill up a 5 gallon bucket? It seems like a straightforward question, but I'm not sure about the conversion rates and the volume of soil that can actually fit into such a container. Can you help me understand if this would work, or if I would need more or less soil to achieve the desired result?
