Description of soil QCSGT12000N (SERGENT)
| Classification | GL.FHP |
|---|---|
| Profile | Native soil profile The soil is in native condition (undisturbed by agriculture). |
| Kind of material | Mineral The soil material is primarily composed of mineral particles. |
| Water table | Non growing season The water table is present in the soil during the non growing season. |
| Root restrictions | Seventh layer The growth of plant roots is restricted by the seventh layer. |
| Type of root restricting layer | Compact Till Compact (Basal) Till |
| Drainage | Moderately well drained Water is removed from the soil somewhat slowly in relation to supply. Excess water is removed somewhat slowly due to low perviousness, shallow water table, lack of gradient, or some combination of these. Soils have intermediate to high water storage capacity (5-6 cm) within the control section and are usually medium to fined textured. Precipitation is the dominant water source in medium to fine textured soils; precipitation and significant additions by subsurface flow are necessary in coarse textured soils. |
| Mode of Deposition | Texture | Chemical properties |
|---|---|---|
| Glaciolacustrine Used where there is evidence that the lacustrine materials were deposited in contact with glacial ice. One of the following characteristics must be present:
|
Coarse Skeletal Coarse Skeletal (USDA Texture Classes: VGS, VGLS). |
Extremely / Strongly Acidic pH < 5.6 |
