Just got my soil test back from my new patch haven't added anything to it yet. This is my first soil test ever having trouble making sense of it. Can anyone help with some pointers on amendments to get me where I need to be :)
organic matter % -2.3m ENR lbs/a -76 P1 (weak bray)-76 NaHCO3-P (OlsenMethod)-8 K -56L MG -44VL CA -896M NA -24L Soil PH -5.3 Buffer Index - 6.7 H -2.3 C.E.C - 7.4 Nitrogen ppm - 5L PERCENT CATION SATURATION (COMPUTED) K -1.9 MG -4.9 CA - 60.8 H - 31.0 NA - 1.4
If anyone would like to help I could email the soil sample report if it would be easier to help! Thank You

Sulfur will LOWER ph. Add lime to raise ph.

Raise ph and add mgsulphate. You need to get mg double where its at.

Dolomitic lime. 50 lbs per 1000 square feet gives the equivalent of a ton per acre. Dolomite will raise your pH and add magnesium.
