  1. I agree with these points on how our soil doesn’t have as much nutrients as it should. I find that these points are strong points on how they show that our soil should be receiving more nutrients then it actually does. I believe we should take more time into making sure that our soil is taken with better care so that our plant and food products that are grown will be healthier for everybody. If we do this then you will need less products being consumed compared to now.

Soil like a lot of things in the garden requires maintenance. We have learned about the different types of soil texture, healthy soil and how to create it.

  4. Soil Structure arises from the physical properties—the sizes, shapes, and composition—of the soil particles, and the way the life in the soil arrange them. Bacteria are omnipresent. They’re the most successful organisms on the planet, with enough diversity to sustain toeholds in even the most extreme conditions, from hyper-acidic mine runoff to ocean thermal vents. Soil—soil is easy, for bacteria, soil is a vacation in the Bahamas.” The spaces between soil particles are as important as the particles themselves.

  5. Researching about teas history I learned that tea is the most popular drink far more popular than coffee in many countries. Drinking black tea helps us decrease our level from getting flu. Drinking tea won't get rid of high temperature. As a mild stimulant, tea may further increase the body temperature. The body cools down by sweating - tea tannins actually inhibit this effect.
