I have been on this site for over a year and been into bosai for about 2 years now. Im enjoying it.
One thing that I could never put my finger on was the word loam and how it was used, noun or adjitive. I had the general idea of the word but did not have an exact deffinition.
I feel that alot of us and newbees are in the same boat on this word. Well, I was surfing around and found this.

This is the USDA deff of loam and easy to read details.
Hope this helps.

Loam
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Loam is soil composed of sand, silt, and clay in relatively even concentration (about 40-40-20% concentration respectively).

I didn't know exactly what it meant either, but I thought it was a kind of soil. Now I know!
