Capillary soil refers to the moisture held in the small pores of soil, primarily in finer-textured soils like clay and silt, rather than in sandy soils. Sand has larger pore spaces, which typically allow water to drain quickly, making it less effective at retaining capillary water. While some moisture can exist in the pores of sand, it is not considered capillary water in the same way as it is in finer soils. Therefore, capillary soil is not primarily found in sand pores.
