Just got a hold of a soil report for my property!

Hey guys,

I'm new to the forums... very glad to be here and growing stuff along side you fine gentlemen.

I'm about to build a bunch of Huglekultur Beds on a plot that my neighbor previously 'soil tested'... which I think is pretty cool, assuming I can use this information for good.

Here's what was found:

Ph- 6.6

(P) 22 PPM (low normal)
(K) 112 PPM (below normal)
(Mag) 250 PPM (ABOVE optimal)
(Calcium) 900 PPM (Perhaps a little low)

I've personally never encountered 'high magnesium before'... but I'm also not very experienced with all of this.

Trace elements
Zinc 4.8 PPM
Copper 2.5
Sulphur 12.1

I know nothing about these numbers.

So, while I'm throwing these beds together, is there anything that you guys think I should ADD, or should I just pile dirt on wood, and hope for the best?

Any recommendations will be very much appreciated... thank you for your time and help!

High mag just means your soil retains more water (clay) than say calcium rich limestone/dry wall. Not really a problem. The below normal phosphate can be solved by amendments.

Did the test check for lead?

Hey guys, thanks for the replies!

@Bengi, what 'ammendments' would you recommend?

@Steven... nope. No lead was mentioned in the test.
