About this kit

Knowing the type of soil you have on site is very important as it determines what plants and wildlife will thrive and will help to inform your management of the site as well. This kit enables you to test the soil pH, moisture and light levels. It also allows you to collect a soil sample to send off for testing should you wish to find out more.

This kit contains:

• Soil corer
• Soil tester kit x 2
• Tape measure
• Bucket

The items in this kit can be handily carried in the bucket, as pictured below.

After borrowing this kit, you may wish to sign-up for SWT's Wilder Communities (www.surreywildlifetrust.org/get-involved/projects/wilder-communities).
