This is the third episode in a series that will help us understand soil analysis and how it can be beneficial as you create a complete nutrition plan. In this episode, we talk about how to select a lab, what types of tests a lab can run, and what you should know about the process that might help with the interpretation. It might be beneficial to listen to the previous episodes:
