Soil Collection

The soil was collected from Marlies's backyard. the sample was about a foot from a 5 foot tall wooden fence and about two feet away from a row of lilac bushes. All of the grass above and surrounding the soil sample was green and at similar heights. In the sample right as it was being dug out of the ground, there were many roots and a peach pit near it and leaves around it. There were many large chunks of soil all clumped together as well as smaller particles mixed into the sample.

The photos below show the soil sample, the hole it was dug from and the area surrounding the hole.
