Thickness of the sandy mantle ranges from 20 to 36 inches. The upper sandy part does not have coarse fragments. The content of gravel in the lower loamy and clayey parts ranges from 0 to 8 percent. Typically, the gravel is in those pedons in which the clayey material is till. Pedons formed partially in the lacustrine deposits do not have cobbles or stones, but pedons formed partially in till have as much as 2 percent cobbles and stones.
Reaction ranges from strongly acid to neutral in the sandy mantle and in the loamy subsoil.
Reaction ranges from moderately acid to slightly alkaline in the clayey subsoil and from slightly acid to moderately alkaline in the substratum. Some pedons have free carbonates in the lower part of the solum and in the substratum. Some pedons do not have free carbonates. The Ap or A horizon has value of 2 to 4, and chroma of 2 or 3. Lower value and chroma are typical of the A horizon that is 2 to 5 inches thick.
