http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Is_potting_soil_a_homogeneous then this answers what potting soil is

anonymous · Answer

Oh, thanks. i just got confused because potting soil seems like it would be uniform throghout and not the granola. Im a new chemisty student, and its defintely not my strongest subject so far. thanks alot! :)

oh...thats explains the confusion. thanks :)

anonymous · Answer

is there an option to say both on your hw

anonymous · Answer

nope. its a study guide and says one letter to each and wont be used twice so i just went with potting soil being a homogeneous mixture because to me it seems more uniform throghout than granola with fruit. Do you think that seems more likely?
