If it were fall 2004 I would have other things to say. But it's 2 weeks from planting time in Spring '05 so.....Add 2 lbs of potash from Sulfate of Potash (4 lbs of 0-0-50 per 1000 sq ft & not one ounce more! LOL)

James, what were the recommendations from the Lab? They always include that on the bottom. Call me.
