This test determines nutrient levels and pH.
What is soil testing?
This symptom results in smaller plants with reduced productivity.
What is stunting?
In a fertilizer label, the second number represents this nutrient form.
What is Phosphorus (P)?
This nitrogen fertilizer contains both ammonium and nitrate.
What is ammonium nitrate?
This describes the soil with a pH between 5 and 6.
What’s is strongly acidic?
Ideal soil pH range for most plants.
What is 6 to 7?
This type of deficiency patten appears symmetrical across the plant.
What is nutrient deficiency.
The conversion factor from P₂O₅ to elemental phosphorus (P).
What is 0.44?
This nitrogen source helps lower pH.
What is ammonium sulfate?
This described the soil with a pH between 6 and 7.
What is slightly acidic?
This substance raises the soil pH.
What is lime?
These nutrients (like Fe and Ca) show symptoms in young leaves.
What are immobile nutrients?
The conversion factor of K₂O to elemental Potassium (K).
What is 0.83?
This phosphorus (Ne) fertilizer also contains 18% nitrogen (N).
What is diammonium phosphate?
This factor effects how available nutrients are to plants.
What is soil pH?
This lime provides both calcium (Ca) and Magnesium (Mg) to the soil.
What is dolomitic lime?
These issues can cause irregular growth besides nutrient problems.

34.75 pounds
This potassium (K) fertilizer is also called muriate of potash.
What is Potassium Chloride (KCl)
This determines nutrient levels, soluble salts, and pH.
What is soil sample results?
In fertilizer labels the first number represents this nutrient.
What is nitrogen (N)?
This condition prevents a plant from completing its lifecycle.
What is nutrient deficiency?
This fertilizer contains the highest nitrogen(N) percentage among common sources.
What is Urea 46-0-0?
This Potassium(K) source contains sulfur(S) and has lower solubility than KCl.
what is potassium sulfate (K2SO4)
This is measured along with nutrients in soil tests to assess salinity.
