I've seen some soil reports posted. What would a report of soil analysis look like in a patch with optimal growing conditions?

I'm going to do more research and come back with more specific questions.

Figure out what your soil texture is....ie. percent content of sand, clay, and silt. This will determine your soil type and consequently how much nutrients your soil can hold. This holding power (CEC) defines what levels of nutrients is the best.

Wrong time of year. LOL...Post this again in November & you'll get some action.

By the way, there really is no such thing as "optimal" other than "meeting all the needs".
