[QUOTE="Colin, post: 858832, member: 1419"] I think soil tests are ok when there is a definite deficiency to catch it before you sow a crop. On the tissue tests I did several on carrots last year to try and see if we are making a difference and the tissue test repeatedly showed low K so we banged on more but it didn't show up in the tissue test of the leaves, so we tested the actual carrot and the k was there. Therefore you have to think about what crop it is when testing and where those nutrients are being partitioned to. Tried a few tests on cereals and they just showed low Mn and Mg so now we will just bung these on as routine, I already put lots of Mn on anyway just need to add Mg. [/QUOTE]
