Steve,

Any preference in how the soil is packaged?

Freezer zip-loc bags are sweet. Twenty Dollar membership includes a standard test.

For next year we're tossing around a Premier Member package that might include an advanced test, free email, etc. We'll see.

The website is in demo mode right now. When it has enough content to not scare away prospective members, we'll announce it here at BP. Ken & John are locked & loaded. We jsut want to be sure before we pull.

Steve what does a standard soil test include just for everyones information?

Soil pH, Buffer pH, Pounds per Acre P, K, CA & Mg. CEC & the calculated values of the cation Nutrients K, CA Mg, & H.

This is fine for any reasonable start or for maintenance.

I like to also do a micronutrient & %OM test once in a while.
