Can we add soil to new graves during Qingming Festival?

Adding soil to a new grave is also called mounding. New graves do not need mounding.
Tips for soil cultivation:
1. No need to cultivate soil if the tree is less than three years old
A new grave is a grave that has just been buried. There will still be a certain amount of evil spirits within three years, so it is not suitable to break ground and it is not advisable to add soil within three years.
2. The soil for soil cultivation must be clean
When you go to the grave to add soil, you must choose clean soil. It is not advisable to use black or red soil. Not only is it disrespectful to the ancestors, it can also easily damage the fortunes of future generations.
3. Pay attention to the location of soil for soil cultivation
It is best to take soil from the Tianyue Erde directions of the current month to add auspiciousness to the ancestral tombs. It is not advisable to take soil from the directions that conflict with the zodiac sign of the deceased.
4. Do not use a hoe to pat the soil
When cultivating the soil, some people will use hoes to beat the soil hard to prevent it from sliding off, but doing so is disrespectful to the ancestors, and it is best to compact it with your hands.
