I expected some recommendations with my soil test from AgriEnergy Resources. I recall previously (some time ago) I did get a list of recommendations with results, although I don't remember which lab I used.

My garden now includes 4 blueberry plants and I want to be sure they have a good chance to grow. I see the ph is too high but I'm not sure of the other elements. Can you offer any comments? Thanks, Greg.

Organic matter 11.2 (v. high) lbs/A Nitrate 56 P1 Phosphorus 76 (v. high) P2 Phosphorus 185 (v. high) Potassium 394 (med) Calcium 5951 (med) Magnesium 14389 Optimum-VHigh) Sodium 47 Soluble Salts 0.5 mmhos/cm Excess Lime Rt L pH 6.7 C.E.C. 23.9 meq/100g
