In this week's gardening blog post I share the soil testing I did in my garden, as part of Floret Flower Farm's Flower Farming Workshop.
I had a lot of fun digging holes and also doing bucket chemistry in our garage.

Anyone know where I could get my home water tested? Like send or bring in a couple samples sorta thing?
We’ve got two diff water filters and I’m not sure the fancier one is doing anything.
While I think of it, is home soil testing a thing?
Months after elevated levels of toxic chemicals were detected outside of a Fifth Ward community center in Houston, the Environmental Protection Agency's most recent soil testing results returned safe levels.

The Environmental Protection Agency conducted additional testing on plots of the greenspace situated behind the Julia C. Hester House after previous samples revealed levels of dioxin, a highly toxic chemical compound, that exceeded the EPA's screening levels for children. Some nearby residents expressed skepticism about the latest testing results.
Union Pacific completed its final round of soil sampling to test for toxic chemicals in Houston’s Fifth Ward and says contamination levels are "below the thresholds that pose an immediate health risk." Long-term health threats will now be assessed.

A total of 176 properties near a contaminated rail yard site were tested for toxic chemicals. Forty-one locations were found to contain contamination levels above the EPA's screening levels, “but below the thresholds that pose an immediate health risk,” according to Union Pacific.
