Question

differene between sand soil and clay soil

Answer 1

SANDY SOIL:

Sandy soils are composed of these large particles, approximately 0.05-2mm, and it drains very quickly. Sand particles are also usually round, which creates more air space between them. Obviously soils with a higher sand ratio are great if you want your garden to drain well. However, too much drainage can result in poor moisture retention, so you will have to be careful.

CLAYEY SOIL:

Clay is the smallest particle of all, at 0.002mm or smaller. Clay soils have much less space between the particles, which makes it the least porous of the soil types and can result in poor drainage. Clay also compacts easily, which is a good thing if you are a potter, but not as rewarding for gardeners. On the bright side, it holds water and nutrients very well, sealing them between fine layers of clay, and the smaller particles mean that there is more surface area for nutrients to stick to.
