Dave,
High organic matter is good,I'm no pro but your ph needs to come up a touch.Rumor is some of the heavy hitters are up around 25%OM. Is this test done from ground that has been ammended in the past. More OM would bring your ph down a little more.Give it some time and wait for someone who nows a little more then me.Lets put it this way I wish my soil was even close to yours.
Good Luck

Dave,
Andy Wolf is working on a project gathering information from different grower's soil. I think his list is getting pretty long, and hopefully we'll all benefit by his research. you should send him your results, i know he's always looking for more data. His email is [email protected]
