Iv'e been doing a search on pricing and applications of fert, seeding and such. I keep reading about testing the soils ph. Is there a test kit that you can buy or do you send it out and get a lab result? I'll be going through the pesticide school put on by the wisconsin dept of agriculture in a couple of weeks. Not sure if this is something that they cover or not. Like always guys all your help is much appriciated, thanks again.

I do mine thru Lesco. Many states also offer them thru the Ag depts. Also, CLC Labs is one of the biggest, don't have their number here but a quick search of the web should find it.

Ran across your site last night and saw the soil samples online. Meant to drop you a compliment for a good idea there. Have you had anyone balk at having that online??
