Do butterfly's drink water?
In Honduras, the north coast, I saw about 50 white butterflies and they appeared to be drinking water from a shallow accumulation of water by a creek. The soil on this particular accumulation of water was a very coarse sand. The butterflies stud on top of the grains of sand and they appeared to be drinking water.

What will a plant grow better in sand water or soil?
The answer is good soil. Water contains very little nutrient and no support. Sand will provide root support but no food or water. Any soil is probably best but both sand and water are used commercially but require much work and knowledge.
What absorbs most water sand or soil?
Soil can typically absorb more water than sand due to its greater organic content, finer texture, and increased porosity. Sand is more permeable and has larger pore spaces, allowing water to drain through more quickly.
Which type of soil retain the greatest amount of water?
Clay soil retains the greatest amount of water due to its small particle size and high water-holding capacity. Sand soil has larger particles and lower water retention capacity. Silt soil falls in between clay and sand in terms of water retention.
