Gardening: what is humus?
Self-tutoring about gardening terms: the tutor mentions humus.
My understanding is that humus is fully-decomposed plant material. It’s dark in color, absorptive (of water, for instance), and generally rich in nutrients. Needless to say, it’s a great advantage to have humus in soil if you want things to grow.
