What Weeds Can Tell Us About Our Soil

Two printable pages to help you spot what the volunteer plants in your garden may suggest about your soil, and what to check before acting.

"An indicator, not a diagnosis. Always observe the whole area before drawing conclusions."

What you'll find

Inside the guide

10 common weeds: plantain, dandelion, sheep sorrel, white clover, lamb's quarters, purslane, curly dock, chickweed, knotweed, yarrow.
What each one may suggest: compacted, acidic, wet, fertile, dry or nitrogen-poor soil.
What to check before concluding anything, plant by plant.
How to check simply, with no equipment: the fork test, observing after rain, how fast the surface dries.
What to do in the garden based on what you find, with concrete and measured actions.
The golden rule: never amend your soil on the strength of a single plant.
