Field 1
Surface:
| .... soil has a slightly
smooth or velvety feel when moist. Squeezed when dry, it forms a
mold that will bear careful handling. The mold formed by
squeezing when moist can be handled freely, without breaking.
When the moistened soil is squeezed out between thumb and
forefinger, it will form a poor ribbon with a dull surface. |

Field 3
Surface:
| ....
soil feels gritty but contain enough silt and clay to make moist
soil hold together. The individual sand grains can readily be
seen and felt. Squeezed when dry, it will form a mold which
breaks readily upon handling. If squeezed when moist, mold can
be formed which can be carefully handled without breaking. It
forms no ribbon or very poor ribbon. |

Field 4
Surface:
| ....
soil has a slightly smooth or velvety feel when moist. Squeezed
when dry, it forms a mold that will bear careful handling. The
mold formed by squeezing when moist can be handled freely,
without breaking. When the moistened soil is squeezed out
between thumb and forefinger, it will form a poor ribbon with a
dull surface. |
|
|
Subsurface:
| ....
soil usually breaks into clods or
lumps when dry. When the moist soil is squeezed out between
thumb and forefinger, it crushes with some effort. It will form
a short (1 inch to 2 inch) well-formed ribbon with a shiny
surface which will tend to break or the ribbon will bend
downward. The sandy clay loam texture has a slightly gritty feel
when moist. |
|
Subsurface:
| .... soil form very hard,
massive lumps or clods when dry and are quite plastic and sticky
when wet. When the moist soil is squeezed out between thumb and
forefinger it crushes with considerable effort and will form a
long (2 inch+) ribbon which will support itself. The sandy clay
texture may also have a slightly gritty feel when moist. |
