The correct answer for this question is this one:
"if you're looking for an even spread of clay, silt and sand, add a considerable amount of sand and some clay until the 3 even out". Soil texture triangle. Silty clay loam soil is approximately 20 percent or less sand, 25 to 40 percent clay, and 40 to 70 percent silt." hope this helps
