  This question is about both soil and plant growth. I have already 
researched a little about soil and plant growth. Right now I'm 
planting watercress and grass seed in clay, potting soil, sand, seed 
starter (milled spaghnam moss), compost soil, and keeping a few plain. I'd 
like to know a little more. Also how should I measure my results of plant 
growth (biomass) and what should  measur it with. Thanks any way:)
