What Will a Soil Test Measure?
A good soil test will evaluate the basic texture of your soil—sand, silt, or clay—and determine its acidity—the pH level. The available nutrients, including magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, and potassium, will be calculated, and recommendations will be made for raising each to the correct levels for optimum plant growth. Armed with this knowledge, you can make the proper improvements. Too much of a good thing can be just as harmful as too little, so let your soil test be your guide.
