While both compost and manure help soil retain more water, compost is better at it, reports Colorado State University. For every 1 percent increase in organic matter in your soil, you increase water retention at a rate of 3 quarts per cubic foot. Spread a heavy layer of organic mulch, measuring 2 to 6 inches in depth, around your garden plants. Examples include wood chips and weed-free hay. Mulch helps retain water in several ways.
Kitsune (ç, ã­ãã, IPA: [kitsuÍne] (listen)) is the Japanese word for fox. Foxes are a common subject of Japanese folklore; in English, kitsune refers to them in this context.
Because of this, many kitsune in old stories are depicted as 'evil', intent on killing humans. Kitsune are rated in power by the number of tails they have. Very young kitsune have one tail; the most powerful mortal kitsune have nine tails (Japanese: ä¹å°¾, kyÅ«bi). In furry lore, the Goddess of Kitsune is usually depicted as being the only ten-tailed kitsune.
