Re: Complications

Yuu certainly do have quite a quandry. I dont think there is anyway
around it, You MUST get a soil test. Without knowledge of the length of
time the unfortunate fella was planted you could really get your
minerals out of whack. You would probably be okay on the calcium but
your PH could be off. If this was a Mafia deal you  would be fine on the
Lime, but with the headstone I really dont think this is the case. 


Best of luck on your "99 Hoffa 1109"
