PH-------------------7.3 CEC------------------15.1 Ece--average---------1.3
cation saturation computed potassium 11.3 % magnesium 19.0 % calcium 67.0 % sodium 2.7 %
last yr i added copper & manganese , copper went from 0.3 up to .08 manganese went from 2 (stayed same) 2

You aren't low in everything. Calcium and manganese are a bit low from what I see standout.

fisssh you may want to try to raise mn to 6/7 ppm and lower your ph towards 6.5. Otherwise looks good.

need calcium and potassium also want to lower ph to at least 7. between 6.8 and 7.1 are the sweet spot for most. Good luck and do alot of research i found a study online that charted the soil test of 100 AG that where over 1000 lbs. Most of all have FUN!

I wouldnt sweat the PH the past 2 years mine has been 7.9 & 7.5.I think the giants are good in higher PH.I would raise your calcium a little.
