Happy Holidays to you all, been a while since I got on an asked for a request! Well. it is that time of year again folks are doing fall soil samples, spring samples won't be that far behind. I would like to ask some of our more better growers to please post a, How to read the soil sample charts they get back, seems like every year the newer growers and some of the less experienced growers are always asking how to read these? In the HOW TO DO section of the main menu section, i believe this could honestly simplify some of the questions asked,, most don't mind answering these requests,, but it may, make a better understanding of the questions asked, well thats my thoughts,, thank you,, Curt

Curt, thinking that I read last fall/winter, that someone named Joe (Ailts)<maybe> would do this for you. I have found an incredible person at local farm supply store who does it for me. Maybe that would be an option? Peace, Wayne
Also, thinking that test results from A&E or Western Lab, (can't remember which is correct) also include recommendations!!

Curt, don't think an article in the how to section would be helpful, as each soil sample comes up w/different %'s of so much different stuff to help any given soil test results. Maybe a goal for overall soil composition could help...but how to get any one soil test to proper levels would vary so much that a "How To" would become almost impossible. Not meant to create an issue, but someone w/knowledge on how to make adjustments is critical! Peace, Wayne Grow em BIG!!!
