ecmn | You're in Pennsylvania, so I'd assume you're on timber soils not prairie soil
So then we would have a similar situation. Both of us. The red flag is lack of protozoa and predators in the soil. Fix that and that's when the soil really becomes a nutrient cycling engine.
But we both have manure which is rocket fuel for bacteria. The low organic matter sand loam difficult to build fungi.
We also are very limited on our cover crop season, long periods of cold soil.... That really makes it difficult for us to build fungi numbers. It's doable, but it's a daunting task for us compared to a guy on prairie soil
I would not worry about your ratio. You're overall numbers are very high. Do you have a race car? That's just a little out of time and just needs a little tune-up but it's still a race car.
Being low functioning that's when the overall numbers are very low.
Worry about fixing the protozoa or predators if anything. Otherwise I would sleep very well
I guess the real question is how are the crops doing? | |
