Here's my soil test after the growing season w/ just a till. Note- my organic matter is now higher (17%) cec is higher too (14.4) & ph has fallen to 6.5 I called Mike Buttress at A&L labs to discuss my soil test & he said that maybe the reason for the increase in om was that last falls leaves may finally have broken down through my growing season & that it was an overall good soil structure that needs only minor tweaks. He also said that one load of broken down manure would be all he would add. The manure would help bring up my potash which he suggested I raise, along w/ my nitrogen a bit.
