Today I got my results in for my soil test. Ph is a little high 7.7 P153/76ppm. K267/134ppm Ca 6512 to high?? If it is how do I get it down? Mg585 also think this is to high how do I get it down. And my micronutrients numbers Iron5.3 Zinc6.2 Boron0.5 Cu0.4 Please help tell me what is to high or to low and how to fix it. Any help is much appreciated!

Your Ca to Mg ratio is acceptable. With your ca and mg that high though, you need more K. potassium sulfate and jersey greensand So don't add anything high in ca and mg Site Search for the Langley soil estimator. If you can post a pic of the soil report.

Based on the dual numbers you posted for Phos, Mag and K I'm assuming your Calcium is also listed in Lbs/acre. so the PPM value would be 3256. correct?

if you are going to use my calculator to run your numbers make sure that you use PPM values. if not your ratios will be incorrect. If the test is done in lbs/acre divide that number in half to get the PPM value.
