    Many of us look at the trees and foliage in our woods and forget about the soil. Professor Julian Evans shows us what to look for, and how to do a simple and easy soil test without any special equipment. Now there's no need for a soil testing kit.

    I'm currently studying soil science as part of an Arboriculture qualification and this video is a fantastic representation of the theory. Thank you for posting!

    thanks very mucha for this very good piece of information, do you know if it is possible to test the ph without using test kits? I know that the type of weed growing in the soil can tell if it acidic...Many thanks

    Nice presentation and it answered my soil questions.
    However, I'd still like to know if clay, silt and sand content differ greatly if samples say were taken from different locations within the same testing areas? What variety and changes are there over specific distances? Many thanks!

    • @bruzote
      @bruzote 4 роки тому

      I don't think anyone can answer that for you. Look around. Does it look the same? Feel the same? Do equal samples fulled soaked get fully dry in the same time frame? Do the samples pass his test the same way from each location?.

    If you started the video at 4:04 with the volume turned off what would you think he was talking about?

    I would offer the word "turd" rather than "sausage." However, one thing missing from the video is what in the world we do with this information.

    Good video except that, for most people, your use of the word "testing" is a misnomer: Most of us consider soil testing to refer to chemical tests for pH or fertility...that is, testing for the chemical, not the physical, properties of the soil.

    Is there somewhere these people go to learn to talk like that? he sounds like the same person who talks about the snakes of Sumatra, or the Iron Age bog people.
