[QUOTE="Texasmark, post: 1494830, member: 27848"] If you follow the Ag. school's train of thought, you replace what you take off. If you remove a ton of a crop and it tests X % N, you just removed that many # of N from your soil. Replace it or suffer the consequences next year. Since you said you do soil samples, just look at what you added/removed since your last test, throw in the added clover contribution and you have your answer. I plant Austrian winter peas and use the N from the nodules to get that part for my crop. I did kick in some extra N this year because the available bag fert. was not per a test result and was an even blend. I had originally planned to till in for soil humus and didn't pay attention to the numbers but now I have a new customer that might be wanting the crop so it may come off after all. Now that we got some rain and temps staying above freezing, adequate sunshine, the rye-pea combo is bursting at the seams. [/QUOTE]
