Hi, Latest soil test results are as follows: All in ppm ph: 7.0 OM: 22% P: 107 K: 217 N: 22 Ca: 1830 Mg: 274 Fe: 75 Percent cation sat (computed) K% 4.6 Mg%: 18.5 Ca%: 75.2 I know that my calcium is low, however based on what I've read the ratio of C-Mg seems appropriate. I was considering adding gypsum to raise the ca, but would that throw off my balance? Also I have not yet added any manure, or compost. I don't want to blindly add manure if the soil doesn't need it. Everything seems to be about balance. I am trying desperately to achieve this balance. I would like to make any necessary ammendments soon before the snow flies. Are there any soil experts out there that could guide me in the right direction? Much appreciation and thanks in advance. Tony
