Soil Tested
Hi,
Well I finally managed to get a soil testing kit, 'focus do it all' have 1
for £11 that tests ph, & nitrogen, phosphorus, and potash (npk). I tested
each side of the garden and got pretty much the same results.
My soil is between ph 7.5 & 8.0 which I think is a little sweet for what I
want to grow, I'd like to get it down between 6.0 & 7.0, how can I achieve
this?
The nutrients test showed that Nitrogen is high, and potash is ok, but
phosphorus is very low, what's the easiest/quickest way to get phosphorus
into the soil. Is it even a good idea to add phosphorus? I read on a few web
sites that adding to much can be worse than having none at all.
Any advice greatly appreciated
Ben
