The soil and its mysteries<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you've ever wondered what the soil in your garden is like, now's your chance to find out with a simple home test!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to do the jug test?<\/strong> Simply take a one litre glass container, fill it half full with soil from the root zone (avoiding surface plant material), then pour up to 90% with water and add a few drops of liquid soap. Shake and let stand for a day. The result? You will see the structure of the soil! But what are we looking for?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What will we experience?<\/strong> The solid particles of the soil settle to the bottom of the water, where the sand forms the bottom layer, with silt above and clay on top. From this simple test we can determine the main characteristics of our soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
