    Damn I need to get me some gaff tape that can stick to soil!

    Also side question, I heard one of these layers is actually salt and this is how people used to get their supply is that true or just armchair science?

    The ole soil pit. This brings me back, hope the judging went well.

    A fragipan was a rare sight ilaround me, so I love to see it.

      Not my pit, but a really pretty profile I yanked from the Rode Island soils Instagram

      We don’t have fragipans in my area. This one looks a lot like a Sombric brunisol (Canadian classification) to me.

      They mentioned they were surprised to see 7% clay lol
