Do you account for soil moisture when you pull samples? I assume you pull samples when it's dry on top and not wet. I think they say K levels come back low when dry
We have used cover crops in the past but for this research we are not. Stay tuned for more details on the study and results from our initial soil tests.
Enjoy hearing your research and knowledge you’ve learned. Always appreciate the tips to help the rest of us on our operations !!! 😀🇨🇦

Yes we waited till it was dryer to pull the samples.
@CalmerCornHeads so if it was dry on top and moist down below would that skew results
@@agger838 Marion actually air dries each bag of the soil at home before sending it in. This is to help with that potential issue.
@@CalmerCornHeads gotcha!
Marion Calmer should manufacture a strip till machine at 15" OC
Where did you purchase that soil probe? Seems like that would make it very easy rather than the push out ones.

Are you trying cover crops?
