    Oi—0 to 2 centimeters (0.0 to 0.8 inches); slightly decomposed plant material; fragments.
    A—2 to 13 centimeters (0.8 to 5.1 inches); very dark grayish brown (10YR 3/2), grayish brown (10YR 5/2), dry; silt loam; moderate fine granular structure; very friable; 10.0 very fine and fine roots and 0.5 medium roots; 5 percent by volume 2-39-75 millimeter unspecified fragments; slightly acid, pH 6.1, hellige-truog; abrupt wavy boundary. Lab sample # MU048319
    AB—13 to 25 centimeters (5.1 to 9.8 inches); brown (10YR 4/3), pale brown (10YR 6/3), dry; silt loam; weak fine granular structure; friable; 3.0 very fine and fine roots and 0.5 medium roots; 15 percent faint clay films; 8 percent by volume 2-39-75 millimeter unspecified fragments; strongly acid, pH 5.1, hellige-truog; abrupt wavy boundary. Lab sample # MU048320. Dark brown (10YR 3/3) flecks from the above horizon were observed.
