For best results, mix the lime into the top 6 to 8 inches of soil several months before planting. BS% % CEC occupied by basic cations For no -till or established plantings where this is not possible, apply no more than 1 to 1.5 ton/acre (50 Ib/1000 sq ft) at Ca% % CEC occupied by calcium one time, even if the report recommends more. You can apply the rest in similar increments every six months until the CEC cation exchange capacity full rate is applied. If MG is recommended and lime is needed, use dolomitric lime. Cu-I copper index ESP exchangeable sodium percent Fertilizer HM% percent humic matter Recommendations for field crops or other large areas are listed separately for each nutrient to be added (in units of K-1 potassium index lb/acre unless otherwise specified). Recommendations for N (and sometimes for B) are based on research/field studies K2O potash for the crop being grown, not on soil test results. K-1 and P-1 values are based on test results and should be > 50. If they Mg% % CEC occupied by magnesium are not, follow the fertilizer recommendations given. If Mg is needed and no lime is recommended, 0-0-22 (11.5% Mg) is MIN mineral soil class an excellent source; 175 to 250 lb per acre alone or in a fertilizer blend will usually satisfy crop needs, SS -I levels appear Mn manganese only on reports for greenhouse soil or problem samples. Mn-AI1 Mn-availability index for crop 1 Mn-AI2 Mn-availability index for crop 2 Mn-1 manganese index dex Farmers and other commercial producers should pay special attention to micronutrient levels. If $, pH$, $pH, C or Z Mn- mineral-organicmanganese class notations appear on the soil report, refer to $Note: Secondary Nutrients and Micronutrients. In general, homeowners do not N nitrogen need to be concerned about micronutrients. Various crop notes also address lime fertilizer needs; visit Na sodium ncagr.gov/agronomi/pubs.htm. NO3-N nitrate nitrogen ORG organic soil class Recommendations forsmall areas, such as home lawns/gardens, are listed in units of lb/1000 sq ft. If you cannot pH current soil pH find the exact fertilizer grade recommended on the report, visit www.ncagr.gov/agr6nomi/obpart4.htm#fs to find P-1 phosphorus index information that may help you choose a comparable alternate. For more information, readA Homeowner's Guide to Fertilizer. P2O5 phosphate S-1 sulfur index Test Results SS-1 soluble salt index W/V weight per volume The first seven values [soil class, HM%, W/V, CEC, BS%, Ac and pH] describe the soil and its degree of acidity. The Zn-AI Zn-I zinc availability index zinc index remaining 16 [P-I, K-1, Ca%, Mg%, Mn-I, Mn-All, Mn-AI2, Zn-1, Zn-AI, Cu-I, S-1, SS-1, Na, ESP, SS -I, NO3-N (not routinely available)] indicate levels of plant nutrients or other fertility measurement.
