It is known that the very weak solution of $-∫_Ω u\Deltaφ dx=∫_Ω fφ dx$, $∀φ∈ C^2(\overline{Ω}),$ $φ=0$ on $∂Ω$, $u\in L^1(Ω)$ has its gradient in $Ł^1(Ω)$ whenever $f∈ L^1(Ω;δ(1+|Lnδ|))$, $δ(x)$ being the distance of $x∈Ω$ to the boundary. In this paper, we show that if $f≥0$ is not in this weighted space $L^1(Ω;δ(1+|Lnδ|))$, then its gradient blows up in $L(\log L)$ at least. Moreover, we show that there exist a domain $Ω$ of class $C^\infty$ and a function $f∈ L^1_+(Ω,δ)$ such that the associated very weak solution has its gradient being non integrable on $Ω$.
