Crazy can be a pre-requisite to giant pumpkin growing!

Yes you can have any type of manure tested... You will likeley be given the results as *TOTAL* amounts of Nutrients and Minerals, unlike a traditional soil test where these things are reported as Availiabe or Extractable...
Any Ag lab should be able to test... You will probably pay more though...

I have a friend I can get manure from and he has it tested before he spreads in on his farm. In fact he just called me today to say his results had come in 16 pounds N, 9 pounds P, and 14 pounds K per ton of manure.

What Im looking for iZ to see if it haZ any copper trace amounts.....saltZ, Ph is probably important too.. but I found an organic source that seems to be perfect to me....

Poultry manure, feather meal and blood meal at 8-2-1. Wont hurt the Mycho but would help augment since I like to include so many leaves....Ill get it tested and let everyone know......

I would like to know the Copper you find in it... It may be more than a trace.
The fresher it is the saltier it will be...
