soil test


Hi Everyone,

I recently received the results from my soil test. They are posted below. Any 
comments or suggestions regarding what I need to do to optimize conditions 
for the upcoming growing season would be appreciated. Levels of phos, pot, 
calcium, and magnesium are listed in the very high range. This indicates that 
I should go lightly with fertilizer. How long through the growing season will 
these levels be sustained before I should begin using fertilizers?

Nitrogen 48ppm
Organic matter 10.1%
PH 6.5 Buffer PH 6.8
Phos 110 ppm
Potass 253 ppm
Calc 2169 ppm
Magnes  435 ppm
Cation Exch 18.6

Thanks,

Ed Pappas
Marshfield,Ma
