How do I identify different types of soil

[TaylorHancock]

Sure! Here are three different ways you could answer that:

[AddisynPena]

"Identifying different types of soil is pretty simple! You can start by looking at the color and texture. For example, sandy soil feels gritty, while clay soil is smooth and sticky when wet. You can also do a little jar test: take a sample of soil, mix it with water, and let it settle. The layers that form will help you see how much sand, silt, and clay you have!"

[TroyWebster]

"To figure out what type of soil you have, just get your hands dirty! Grab a handful and squeeze it. If it holds its shape and feels sticky, it’s probably clay. If it crumbles easily, it might be sandy. You can also check for organic matter by looking for little bits of plant material. And hey, if you want to get fancy, you can use a soil test kit to check pH and nutrient levels!"
