<br />Chroma: 2 to 6
<br />Texture: very fine sandy loam, fine sandy loam, sandy day loam, loam, sandy loam, clay loam, or silt
<br />loam

<br />Calcium carbonate equivalent: 15 to 45 percent
<br />Reaction: moderately to very strongly alkaline
<br />COMPETING SERIES: These are the Hiland and Solirec series. Hiland soils have less than 15 percent
<br />carbonates in the calcic horizon. Solirec soils are in MLRA 34 and receive maximum precipitation in
<br />spring and fall. Similar soils and previously competing series are (Ustic Haplargids) Bowback, Cambria,
<br />Cushman, Decolney, Forkwood, Fort, Maysdorf, Pugsley, Teckla, Yenlo and (Ustollic Haplargids) Balon,
<br />Buckle, Cerrillos, Clovis, Fattig, Fernando, Flaco, Gaddes, Gapbutte, Hagerman, Harboard, Los
<br />Alamos, Millett, Oelop, Olney, Palacid, Penistaja, Pokemen, Potts, Progresso, Quagwa, Redpen,
<br />Scholle, Selpats, Spangler, Spenlo, Sundance, Tapia, Threetop, Toluca, and Tuweep. Only Cerrillos,
<br />Clovis, Fernando, Millett, Scholle, Tapia, Toluca, and Tuweep soils are reclassified to Calciargids under
<br />the 7th Edition. Cerrillos soils are dryest from October to May. Clovis soils receive more than half of their
<br />precipitation between the months of July and October. Fernando soils contain 50 to 80 percent silt in
