Yolo Loam
Pica rented the rototiller and had it overnight. It’s nice soil, Yolo loam I remembered from perusing the soil survey for Solano County. Or to be more specific, assuming the map is accurate, Yolo loam with a clay substratum at a depth of 40-60 inches.
My colleagues over in soil science across the road from my office have put together a very nice web mapping application describing the soils of California, Arizona, and Nevada. So if you’re curious about the soil type where you’re trying to garden, zoom on in and have a look.
- Numenius, I owe you a nice juicy clamworm. Or chocolate, whichever you prefer.— Ron Sullivan 8. May 2006, 08:56 Link
