This study analyzed the physicochemical properties of soil near a microbiology laboratory at the University of Ilorin in Nigeria over six sampling periods. The pH ranged from 7.10 to 7.82, moisture content was between 2.10-5.23%, organic matter was 3.42-4.70%, and water holding capacity was 0.28-0.53 ml/g. The soil texture was determined to be loamy sand with 89% sand, 7% silt, and 4% clay on average. The results indicate the soil properties were suitable for microbial growth and plant development.
