    There are three main types of soil: clay, sand, and silt. Clay soil is made of very small particles and feels sticky when wet but hard when dry. Sand soil is made of larger particles and feels gritty. It does not hold water well or support plant growth as well as other soils. Silt soil has particles smaller than sand but larger than clay that feel smooth and powdery. Silt soil is good for plant growth and water retention.
