[QUOTE="neilo, post: 5817108, member: 348"] That’s what I did, then retested and reapplied accordingly the next year. It was a big/huge lump to pay out in one go obviously, but my thinking was that the sooner it was corrected, the sooner it would start producing. The rent still had to be paid in full, even if it was growing diddly squat and 2/3 of any fertiliser was being wasted. Definitely the right decision in hindsight. There was one 60ac block of pp that was so waterlogged in 2012 that we couldn't access it with a lime spreader, so I used granular lime as a temporary measure. Retesting on that block later showed what an expensive waste of money that exercise was. [/QUOTE]
