I have sent my soil tests out about a 6 weeks ago with no results back of yet. I was wondering where other growers have sent their tests to that got theirs back in a fast time frame. I think 6 weeks is usually about the norm.

A&L Western Labs takes about just under three weeks. That's shipped from N.Y. to California, then the test back to N.Y.

A & L LABS London ON, less than two weeks and that includes several days postal service. Add in a 10% discount for GVGO members. A special recommendation for AGP soil additions which are converted to pounds per 1000 sq.ft. It's a great place to send a sample. The agronomy guy there is Ian McLaughlin he will spent as much time as you need on the phone if you encounter problems.

ditto, results in about 5 days at A @ L labs london. Ian is a good guy to talk with over any topic. 6 weeks is too long and if you are waitng in season for results, you want them asap for any tweeking.
