- Phosphorus (P)
- Potassium (K)
- Sulfur (S)
- Calcium (Ca)
- Magnesium (Mg)
- Sodium (Na)
Essential soil micronutrients (needed in smaller amounts):
- Iron (Fe)
- Manganese (Mn)
- Zinc (Zn)
- Copper (Cu)
- Boron (B)
pH levels (balance between acidity and alkalinity)
How often should I test my soil?
If you are actively growing and harvesting from a plot of soil, testing every year is ideal (preferably in the fall).
If you are fallowing or resting ground between growing sessions you can test once every 2 years. Don't wait more than 3 years to test soil.
If you test in the fall, amend, and put soil to bed over the winter, then testing again in the spring can give you an idea of how well your amendments corrected soil problems.
Why doesn’t the Redmond Soil Test Kit test for % of organic matter?
While percentage of organic matter (% OM) is a common metric found on other soil tests, the experts at MySoil and Redmond choose to look at the bigger picture: balanced levels of macro and micro nutrients, and healthy pH ranges. These metrics help you choose the right amendments to help soil microbes break down organic matter into bio-available forms your plants can use.
We recommend always adding organic matter to your soil, regardless of whether you think it would test high or low. Good sources of organic matter include: manure, leaves, compost, and straw.
