If your having trouble figureing out the chemistry of your soil dont sweat it. Work on the physical components instead. Looks like you need some lime and organic matter, like well matured compost. Thats all I would worry about right now. Try to build a deep fluffy soil that drains well, and the rest will take care of itself.
You should have some lime recomendations that came back with your results...
