Hay, what is your calcium saturation at 50 inches if you can get roots that deep and with alfalfa I am sure you can?

I am sure you have told me but what is the most accurate base saturation of your soils at different depths?

Gypsum won't increase pH. It is neutral. 7.0 pH hopefully, not a liming agent. Magnesium will. 2 times as much as calcium. The sulfur buffers the Ca in gypsum.

I think timing and weather has more impact on your(our soils) as much as anything and we are all trying to maximize the nutrient flow in our soil that our crop will respond to.
