We just received soil test results from the Penn State Cooperative Extension. The pH of our plots is close to neutral (7 to 7.4), but the bad news is that our soil is deficient in several macronutrients, including calcium and potassium.
Once we've tilled our plots, we'll be adding compost and organic fertilizers to make the soil rich. Gypsum and greensand are on my list of organic fertilizers to buy.
