[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 589006, member: 4362"] Here is what our extension recommends. Take 10 -20 samples in each field (more the better) For row crops - sample to plow depth For lawns, turf and pasture go 4" Gardens - 6" orchards - 8-12 inches pecan groves 6 - 8 inches Each sample should represent no more than 15 acres. Avoid sampling in the low or high spots and along roads, fences, fertilizer bands etc. If you have a week spot in the field, sample it seperately. Put soil in a clean plastic bucket and mix well and put in sampling bag. [/QUOTE]
