What is garden soil?

Garden Soil Introduction

Garden soil, also known as vegetable garden soil or farmland soil, is soil that has been cultivated and planted with flowers and vegetables. It has a relatively good aggregate structure and is one of the main raw materials for preparing culture soil.

Garden soil composition

Because the soil is continuously fertilized and cultivated, and has been accumulated and fermented with garbage, fallen leaves, straw, etc., the garden soil is rich in humus, has high soil fertility, and has good physical properties.

Garden soil characteristics

advantage

First, garden soil is widely distributed and easy to obtain;

Second, the cost of garden soil is relatively low;

Third, the garden soil is rich in humus and has higher soil fertility.

shortcoming

First, the surface of garden soil is easy to compact when it is dry, and the ventilation and air permeability are poor when it is wet, so it is not suitable to be used alone as potting soil;

Second, garden soil may contain various pathogens and insect eggs, and its structure is relatively simple. Before use, it can be exposed to high temperature or sterilized at high temperature before use.

Garden soil suitable for plants

Garden soil is rich in humus and is very effective for growing roses, pomegranates and general flowers and plants. Underground soil and gravel soil dug out from urban construction are not garden soil, and are not suitable for directly planting flowers or preparing culture soil.
