Soil Classification

Clay soil - it has closely packed particles and little air when water is added.

Loamy soil - the best soil for our Window farm, contains all the correct nutrients and quantity of water and air.

Looking at Clay soil, the particles are closely packed together.

The different sized particles are more apparent through a magnifying glass.
