If you have high calcium and high P and K levels I would expect high yields. If you have low calcium and high P and K it will take a lot more to get the same crop as the high calcium field. Why?? because the calcium is feeding the biology, mainly bacteria fungi feed on the K, to give you healthier soil and higher yields. Would I expect a yield limit to high calcium? Only if I run out of available P first and other nutrients after that. JMO
