This soil can easily liquefy due to alkalinity, and become useless for farming.
|
|
When more clumped, plants penetrate it well. Acidity and working while wet
|
|
causes it to puddle. It must be worked when humidity is exactly correct
|
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
* light soil
|
|
* well drained
|
|
* deficient in potash/phosphates

|
* early soil, produces early in the year
|
