[QUOTE="Mark Reynolds, post: 1847830, member: 43196"] Great on the soil test. Right now, definitely don't do any fertilization. The "H-", "VH" and "H" results tells me you have more than enough. The VH is a bit concerning as you can have too much of a good thing which can result in pollutants and runoff. Going a year or 2 without fertilization should begin to or totally address this issue. Your pH is 6. I'd like to see a pH of 6.5, which is where the liming recommendation comes in. Getting the pH up a tad more will optimize the nutrient availability to the plants from the soil. At the same time, a pH of 6 is relatively good. Clovers (legumes) will do better with the pH being 6.5 instead of 6. [/QUOTE]
