Soil analysis to start this year. I plan on adding ammonium sulfate to bring down the pH and add nitrogen, in addition to elemental sulfur, and feather meal. I will add the sulfur now as it takes a while to breakdown and lower pH. I will add the rest of the amendments closer to planting to minimize loss to leaching before I have plants on the ground. Boron was within the normal range, but this needs to be higher to help with Calcium movement. I definitely do not need to add any calcium thanks to all the limestone in our area.
