There's a good way to find out.... Go out and pull a series of soil samples. I would probably go 24" deep if you can. Use a series of buckets (or containers). Label them so you know which one is which. I would break up each core - say one core section 0-4" deep - goes in the first bucket; next core 4-8" deep - goes in the next bucket; next corn 8-12" deep - goes in third bucket; and so on. Pull multiple cores like this, and split each one accordingly. Then put each subsample in a separate soil test bag, and send them off. Be sure to analyze for nitrate nitrogen. When you get results back, you should get a picture of where you nitrogen is - at least your nitrate- nitrogen. |
