Product description
Loam soil holds nutrients and has a texture that retains water long enough for plant roots to access it, yet it drains well. This means that, eventually, the water seeps away so that plant do not rot. Without quality soil, plants struggle to survive and usually require supplemental feeding and watering
•Composition:Loam is characterized by a balanced mix of sand (larger particles), silt (medium-sized particles), and clay (smaller particles).
•Proportions:While the exact proportions can vary, loam typically contains around 40% sand, 40% silt, and 20% clay by weight.
•Water Retention and Drainage:The combination of these particles allows loam to hold a good amount of water, preventing it from drying out too quickly, while also allowing excess water to drain away, preventing waterlogging.
•Aeration:The pore spaces created by the different particle sizes ensure good aeration, allowing oxygen to reach plant roots, which is essential for healthy growth.
•Nutrient Holding Capacity:Loam is also known for its ability to hold nutrients, making it a fertile soil type for a wide variety of plants.
•Ideal for Plant Growth:Because of its balanced properties, loam is considered an ideal soil type for most garden plants and crops.
•Variations:While the term "loam" describes a general type of soil, there are variations such as sandy loam, silty loam, and clay loam, depending on the relative proportions of sand, silt, and clay.
