Hello.
After tinkering and studying alone, I realize why not open up to a group that has walked this path before. So here it is; I am turning a portion of my yard into a native landscape. My initial step is to mimic the native soil. So, how? What measurements do I need to quantify in order to create a similar habitat. For example, do I need to measure nematodes, protozoa, bacteria, calcium, the soil type (sand, clay, silt), pH...?
Please assist with similar projects that LIST these necessary variables. I have found plenty of resources showing peoples' projects but not detailing the practical how-to's.
Many thanks. I look forward to contributing to a fun group.
Cheers.
