Been waiting all week to receive the out come of my soil test taken for the
second time one in fall and now one in the spring......i was curious to
know how serious the leaching had been after 50 inches of rain...........My
Organic matter was 6 in the fall and I added a 12 more yards to 3000sq ft
back then too to boost it a little now the O.M still is 6 ....nitrogen and
phos dropped as so did sodium and sulfur....... zinc and maganeese and iron
went up......
the fertility guidelines said add phos. Nitro. and a little
sulfur...................need to listen to a few others thoughts on good
sources for these three....???????????????????????????????????.......thanks
brock
P.S El Nino means "the christ child"........after the last storm and
lighting I got real religious ....the other time was when i found mouse
dropings on top my largest specimen I was on my knees crying.....
