Each letter in NPK stands for each element’s symbol on the periodic table. “N” stands for nitrogen. “P” stands for phosphorus. “K” stands for […]
Pore space in soil, also known as soil porosity, describes the amount of negative space between soil particles. Pores, or pore spaces, get created when plant roots, insects, and earth worms move through the soil. Pore space also gets created when below-ground liquids releases gas and as fertilized materials work their way into the soil. […]
