Martinsville, Ohio
Whenever you can get the probe in the ground. It is too hard now. Spring or fall testing is good or after the first cutting. If you get a complete test from a lab like Midwest and enter your crop history and yield goals and pay for the recommendations and follow them, you will get your result. Sending in some tissue to balance the program helps me finetune my program and make sure I get the listed micronutrients on.

One hay field got 100 lbs AMS, 200 MAP, 200 Potash, 30 lbs of Mn, 30 lbs of B, 30 lbs of Zinc, 10 lbs of copper sulfate and the farmer had the best hay he as ever raised. Some of my corn fields required a similar mix.
