In addition to the helpful advice provided by users on this forum, I extend my offer to help provide guidance for interpreting soil tests and generating customized reqs for fertilizer/nutrient additions to your patch.
In the interest of "teaching a man to fish", I have written a comprehensive soil testing and nutrient management guide specific to giant pumpkins where I dive into each of the measurements and nutrients on a soil test.
https://www.stcroixgrowers.org/collections/how-to-guides/products/giant-pumpkin-growers-guide-to-interpreting-soil-tests-managing-fertility
The guide & 1:1 guidance has helped many achieve personal bests in their patch. The guide costs $12, which essentially covers printing and shipping costs.
Why am I doing this? I do it for the love of the hobby, genuine interest in soil fertility, and the satisfaction of watching a fellow grower achieve greatness in their patches. :)
