I did not plant any cover crop, now i,m thinking about all the nutrients that have been washed out, because we get plenty rain here in winter and early spring. i wil do a soil test again in spring but if it turns out bad how do get your soil going?

Low number organic fertilizers, remineralization, fish and kelp in the soil (liquids or solids) alfalfa meal may substitute for kelp boosted by Black Strap Molasses. Very carefully applied humus or humic acid will help if your organic content is 5% or higher.
