I've taken over some ground that has been neglected to an extent for a good while, and just going through the soil samples today in preparation for the year ahead...
The results came back way better than I expected with lime requirements considerably less than expected especially when taking into account its a high MO area and reduction for such. Issue is P really, 13 of 20 plots index 4 for P & K and 1 plot Index 3 for both. The other 6 are Index 1 or 2 for P and Index 4 for K, question what is the best way to get the P up without applying K?
Novice question but is there an N / P fertiliser similar to 20-0-15 that can be used as never used one before like that before or would adding extra K matter?
