Tissue test that goes with the leaf and plant pics taken earlier.
I'm not sure these tests are totally necessary because there are other ways to learn how to grow a healthy plant but... yeah.
In some ways the plants that go with this test look like some of the best plants I've had. But they do not look perfect. I think when the nutrients get on the low side of moderate, it can still have a negative impact? I could have suspected copper, sulfer and manganese to be a bit low, but I wouldnt have suspected phosphorus, magnesium and zinc to be high. Its still a guessing game (how much copper will get absorbed exactly via drench or foliar, so how much should I add?). Btw I did not add npk to this spot this year its just still potent from my "WR bushel gourd" attempt last year... Almost a toxic (well, unhelpful anyhow) level of potassium... probably blew up a couple gourds because of excess potassium and lack of copper/boron/sulfer? The lone unexploded bushel gourd only hit 200 lbs.
