Fall Test Spring Test

OM = 8.4%     OM = 18.5%
ph = 6.0     ph = 6.9
Buffer ph = 6.4     Buffer ph = 7.1
Phosphorus = 7 ppm     Phosphorus = 66 ppm
Potassium = 237 ppm     Potassium = 202 ppm
Calcium = 1010 ppm     Calcium = 1776 ppm
Magnesium = 104 ppm     Magnesium = 266 ppm
Boron = .3 ppm     Boron = .6 ppm
Manganese = 4.8 ppm     Manganese = 6.8 ppm
zinc = 16.5 ppm     zinc = 6.9 ppm
copper = .4 ppm     copper = .2 ppm
iron = 21.9 ppm     iron = 2.1 ppm
Nitrogen NO3-N = 16 ppm     Nitrogen NO3-N = 9 ppm
CEC = 13.2     CEC = 15.6
    
Base Saturations %:     Base Saturations %:
K = 4.7%     K = 4.5%
MG = 6.6%     MG = 18.9%
Ca = 38.9%     Ca = 76.8%
    
extract aluminum = 65 ppm    extract aluminum = 8 ppm


after the fall test I added 20 yards of manure and mulched leaves and composted leaves with grass clippings.Also 115# of pelletized gypsum,100# of hical lime and planted winter rye.
