Why no lime? It's the cheapest nutrient you need. Especially on the second sample. If you get it make sure it's calcitic lime and not dolomitic (it has magnesium in it). The stuff we get from OK is dolomitic while lime at crushers over here on TX side is calcitic.

You can get chelated micronutrients of all the ones you're short on, who knows if you'll see any response. If it were my test it would definitely get zinc. Possibly copper and manganese too.

You're good on phosphate and that's the nutrient I like banding in the most. Maybe just use 3-4 gallons of 10-34-0 as a carrier for whichever micros you want to try.

If you're going to put in zinc, find some ammoniated zinc if you can. It's much cheaper than chelated and blends well with 10-34-0
