Compare and contrast the subsoil of the three types of soil?

Sand: Subsoil of sand is typically coarse and does not retain water well, leading to poor nutrient retention. Silt: Subsoil of silt is fine-textured and holds water better than sand, but can still be prone to compaction and drainage issues. Clay: Subsoil of clay is heavy and holds water and nutrients well, but can become waterlogged and difficult to cultivate when too wet.
