Q&A – Should I follow the recommendations of a late soil test now?

Question:
I had a soil test done on my garden, but the results didn't come back until everything started to come up. Can I follow the recommendations of a late soil test now, or wait until after the growing season?

Answer:
Yes, you should start following the recommendations now instead of waiting for a new growing season. UT Extension Agents Mike Dennison and Chris Cooper give some guidelines.
