Classification of soil material according to physical ripening
n-value / designation / suffix to horizon symbol / description of consistency
(valid for average clay content)
0.7 / ripe / r / firm, does not stick to the hands or only slightly and
cannot be squeezed through the fingers
0.7-1.0 / nearly ripe / wα / fairly firm, tends to stick to the hands and cannot be easily squeezed through the fingers
1.0-1.4 / half pipe / wβ / fairly soft, sticks to the hands and can be easily squeezed through the fingers
1.4 2.0 / practically unripe / wγ / soft, sticks fast to the hands and can be easily squeezed through the fingers
> 2.0 / unripe / wδ / liquid mud, cannot be kneaded
