First let me describe what I have. Test 1 was performed on the soil outside the patch. Test 2 is inside the patch. (Sort of a before and after)

Next thing to note is that test 2 soil is only about 4-6 inches deep then it gets back into test 1 soil type.

Finally, My patch is around 45'x65' and the ammended is about the middle 2/3 of the patch.

And the test results.

Test 1:
pH - 6.2
Buffer pH - 6.86
P - 37ppm
K - 95ppm
Ca - 764ppm
Mg - 115ppm
OM 1.5%

Test 2

pH - 7.4
P - 254ppm
K - 627ppm
Ca - 1893ppm
Mg - 339ppm
OM 4.3%

2 plants are in the ground, remaining 4 will go in this week. Anything I can do to help things out?
