Anybody test the soil in the plot more than once a year? I rotate the deer on and off the plot during the summer, and rotate off around laborday when I put up the fence. I usually mowed and added lime and fertilizer just guessing in the past, wondering if a soil test is worth the investment twice a year?
I soil test every other year. The testing place told me it takes 2 years for the lime to mix into the soil.
I have been liming for about 4 years now, finally did a soil test this year just waiting for the results.
Whitetail Institute Labs in Memphis, you can order thru them they send the sample bags with a postage bag.
