Darkcrisis' Parents 2018 Soil Test
Hello ST6,
I’m back for a 3rd time to ask for a soil interpretation for my Parent’s TTTF lawn. I’ve got 2 full seasons working on correcting this lawn under my belt and it is amazing. It puts my lawn to shame.
In 2017 I applied 2lb/K of TSP several times throughout the season. I applied 3lb/K of SOP once in the spring and once in the fall. I applied Milorgate a time or two. I did several Urea applications in the fall but missed out on winterizing because the grass was still slowly growing. I also continued my Bermuda extermination plan and it is working great!
2018 Goals: Continue the recommended applications. I have pretty much everything I could possibly need on hand or readily available.

Put a Link into the Soil Test Interpretation Queue, or it didn't happen

Re: Darkcrisis' Parents 2018 Soil Test
I'd apply a good source of Nitrogen regularly, and do what you can to get bioavailable Iron into the soil/grass (either use Milorganite or foliar FAS).
That's it - unless you want to tackle the Boron and Copper micronutrient shortages. The soil is stable and right on the tipping point into alkaline soils - don't push it.

I would like to tackle the Boron and Copper this year.
Is 3 tablespoons/K every 60 days the correct rate for this yard as well?
