    BE—23 to 30 centimeters (9.1 to 11.8 inches); yellowish brown (10YR 5/4) Error; weak fine and medium subangular blocky structure; friable; 35 percent brown (10YR 5/3), moist, silt coats on faces of peds and 35 percent very dark grayish brown (10YR 3/2), moist, organic stains on faces of peds; 11 percent medium distinct strong brown (7.5YR 5/6), moist, masses of oxidized iron; 2 percent by volume nonflat indurated unspecified fragments; very strongly acid, pH 4.6; clear wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0026045
