Soil sampling photos
Because the soil is so porous (dry and sandy), we use a spatula to secure the soil to the corer before removing the entire core.
Pour out the excess soil from the corer until the soil is at the top level of the middle ring. Measure out soil into the tin where an extra ring sits (left). Remove the ring and weigh, as usual (right).
