[QUOTE="The Bachelor, post: 353886, member: 1336"] I need some help with a decision on what to do on this 20 acre piece of property I recently bought. My soil test shows I have low nitrogen( 10ppm) and phosperhous (5ppm) I have a medium to low K (70 ppm). My PH though is 5.2. I've got 3 heifers and two steers on it now, and was planning to add 4 more heifers this year. Now I know I need N, but my soil is really acidic. They won't be able to spread lime until May. So here is my questions. Would you add the fertilizer anyway, or would you try to get through until this fall when I can lime it and disc it in? I guess I'm asking "How would you manage this pasture?" Thanks, Brad [/QUOTE]
