It Might be me but I really dont get it...Base saturation is Ca 56% Mg 36% K 8%..If that's the case I would go especially with a PH of 6.8, light lime it and put in some gypsum on top..looking for a Ca/Mg ratio of 6 to 1...Wait till the big guys kick in but I would get a little better ratio on those..PH of 6.8 is great but If I recall a slide from Niagara correctly Pumpkin ferts were better absorbed in the 7.1 to 7.2 range..Tremor need help with that slide again!!
