I've had the honor to work with Dr Chuck of CLC labs for many years.
Andy Wolf also shared his collective soil test data from A&L.
We've compared our notes with heavy Hitters including 4 world record
holders.
There is no perfect formula for success but here's what I'd recommend:
Gypsum.......add 1000 lbs per acre. Most "hitters" get their Ca between
2000-5000 ppm. I believe anything over 3000 is unnecessary IMO.

I got my yearly soil test results back. I am moving my patch next year and
that sample showed calcium @1313ppm. I have never had to amend my fields
with Ca before. Can someone please let me know an efficient and effective
source to apply?
Thank You!
