This is what i have seen for soil test:

soil ph 5.6
buffer ph 6.9
organic matter 2.7
CEC 6.1
K Saturation % 3.6
Mg Saturation % 16.7
Ca Saturation % 58.9
K/Mg ratio 0.8
Ca/Mg ration 7.0
Phosphorus ppm 34
Potassium 109
Magnesium 140
Calcium 942

I know there is better advice out there than what i can give. Tell me what you think he should do to better his 16x32 plot.

Get some lime on it right away. Whatever the lab recommends. It looks like it could use some organic matter or compost too.
