What percentage of water-holding capacity in the soil is best for monst plant growth?

Simple answer is that it depends on the soil, but 70-90% will be ok for most soils. However, don't use % WHC as it is a poorly defined parameter. I will use the example of a loam soil and a clay soil to show why. If I take a loam soil to say 70% WHC, it may have a matric potential (i.e. water stress in the soil) of -50 kPa, which is perfectly fine for plant growth. A clay soil taken to the same %WHC may have a matric potential of -1500 kPa, which is the wilting point for plants.


Why do farmers monitor the quality of their soil?

Farmers monitor the quality of their soil to ensure optimal crop growth and yield. By testing the soil, they can adjust nutrient levels and pH to provide the best conditions for plant growth. Monitoring soil quality also helps farmers prevent soil degradation and erosion, promoting sustainability in agriculture.


What happens if you eat soil or earth?

Eating soil or earth can lead to health problems such as gastrointestinal issues, nutrient deficiencies, and exposure to harmful substances like pesticides or heavy metals. It can also introduce harmful bacteria or parasites into your body, leading to infections or other complications. It is not safe to consume soil and can be potentially dangerous to your health.


How does the water contributes in the formation of soil?

ok so, here we go, when water is frozen and when it expands, it is known as frost wedging, it breaks down the rocks, then it erodes with a river or whatever and then all of that material which was eroded forms and slowly over time becomes soil, minerals and all that good stuff was added for your vegetable garden, worms are only in your soil to churn it and give paths, so don't freak out and go on a rampage and start shooting them with a shotgun and remember it gives nutrients to your soil. Hope this helped, keep on asking questions and we will answer, so don't worry

What is the lifespan of a tomato?

The average lifespan of a tomato would mostly be around the average of 10 days, or 5.9 billion years. Depending on what brand or seed you use. The tomato might not be as great but it will still be ok to eat and is great with chocolate milk. (call poisen control if you have eaten the tomato with any kind of fungus!)

How do plants live?

Plants make their own food through a process called photosynthesis, where they convert sunlight into energy. They also absorb water and nutrients from the soil through their roots. Plants use this energy to grow, reproduce, and carry out their metabolic functions.

Rock is OK but does nothing beneficial for the plants, Bark decomposes and all the nutrients go into the soil. It's what you think looks better for you landscape design.


Is it OK to plant a new tomato plant in the same spotas the old one?

Yes but if you are worried about root nematodes, double dig your hole with a lot of composted manure. You may end up replacing the top 12" of your garden soil around the tomato hole. You might try rototilling. Compost the old soil to kill nematodes. I haven't yet had a nematode problem and grow tomatoes in the same spots every year. The amending of soil has the added bonus of putting a lot of living organisms back in the soil that create a healthy and beneficial root as well as replenish nutrients. Tomatoes are heavy feeders. Oh, and I add a source of calcium and phosphorous when I amend soil for most veggies. Good luck!


Is a tomato that has sprouted seeds safe to eat?

The seeds of a tomato are inside it, and usually sprout after the tomato decays and the seeds can then germinate. Seeds can actually start to sprout inside the tomato if it is kept around long enough and at room temperature. Do not eat the sprouting seeds. The flesh of the tomato is probably OK, but it must be getting a bit old and the flavor might not be what you'd hope for. I'd toss it and get a fresher one. There may be a green leaf-like top on the tomato, this is part of the plant where it was attached to the vine. A tomato with one of those is perfectly edible - just pick off the piece, it will come away easily.
