Ok here goes. Organic matter 9.0 Nitrate - N Phos weak bray 122ppm surface 17ppm 31 lbs/A phos strong bray 144 ppm Depth 0-6 K 300ppm mg 507 ppm Sulfur 18 ppm Ca 2410 ppm Zinc 5.8 ppm Na 23 Manganese 6 ppm ph 7.4 iron 58 ppm CEC 17.1 copper 2.7 ppm % base saturation boron 1.5 ppm %k 4.5 Soluble salts 0.3 %Mg 24.7 %Ca 70.2 %H 0.0 %Na 0.6 Whaa huuuhhh? This was the 1st year i grew pumpkins (store bought seeds) so i have no idea if this is good or bad. Any advice would be appreciated. I have a call into Craig Lembke to try to give me some suggestions as well. The test also came with a nice pie chart to show me how good or messed up certain things were. Very interesting. One thing that threw me was my PH (remember i am new at this) I have 5 evergreens in my yard and one that is right on top of the garden. I thought that would keep my ph low. Again any help/advice. Pretty cool learning experience so far.
