Potential Natural Vegetation

Concept: we are matching adapted plants to a site, and adding supporting biomass to it (assuming it's been depleted). We are not concerned about missing minerals, which are found in rocks and soil already.

Look at soil analysis docs - [1]

Ball tests - soil particle size analysis

Preparation

Hammermill for perforation material. Avoid vermipost, which releases nutrients quickly.
