[QUOTE="eric, post: 96065, member: 7"] Yes it does vary quite a bit in Texas. Even on my place, I have about 90% of perfect red sandy soil that will grow just about anything, then on the back few acres, I have hard rock that we dang near had to dynamite out just to get some fence posts into! Just a few miles away, I know of neighbors who have the hard black clay and every one of them have foundation problems with their houses. Go just a few miles the other way and you find the gummy calache rock, which makes for great drive ways, but doesnt grow anything needing more than 2" of root depth. Best bet is to actually dig a hole in the ground you're considering. [/QUOTE]
