Hi,
Just got back soil sample results from local extension office. Please
explain what is ment by
my soil type which they classfied on one sample as "Sandy Loam" and another
sample from another part of my property as "Loamy Sand".

Phone your extension agent and ask him/her to explain it. The difference between
sandy loam and loamy sand is probably percentages of dirt to sand. Ask.
That's what
they're there for. (The only dumb question is the one you don't ask. Don't
be embarassed
to ask.)

I'm in the enviable position of having exceptional extension agents. Our
cattle guy even
knows which end of a cow to feed and which end to clean up after. *woo
hoo* (That
hasn't always been the case...) And my ag guy recommended Tumbler tomatoes for
hanging baskets. We bought one. It's a *great* windowsill 'mater variety!
