Question

discuss the different types of soil ​

Answer 1

• There are three basic types of soil: sand, silt and clay.
• Sand within soil is actually small particles of weathered rock. Sand is fairly coarse and loose so water is able to drain through it easily.
• While this is good for drainage, it is not good for growing plants because sandy soil will not hold water or nutrients.
