    Ap—0 to 20 centimeters (0.0 to 7.9 inches); brown (10YR 4/3) Error; weak fine granular structure; very friable; fragments; slightly acid, pH 6.2; abrupt smooth boundary. Lab sample # OSU0019669
    B1—20 to 36 centimeters (7.9 to 14.2 inches); yellowish brown (10YR 5/4) Error; weak medium subangular blocky structure; friable; 35 percent faint dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/4), moist, organic stains; fragments; moderately acid, pH 5.8; clear wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0019670
    Bt21—36 to 53 centimeters (14.2 to 20.9 inches); 10YR 5/ (10YR 5/), Error; moderate subangular blocky structure; friable; faint yellowish brown (10YR 5/4), moist, clay films on faces of peds; fragments; strongly acid, pH 5.2; clear wavy boundary. Lab sample # OSU0019671. patchy - phpvsfiid 980045; patchy - phpvsfiid 980045
