Recommendations:
| Recommended pH: | 6.0. If the pH is less than 6.0, see Lime Table C. | ||||||||
| Nitrogen: | 0 pounds nitrogen (N) per acre | ||||||||
| Magnesium: | If soil test Mg level is low and lime is recommended, use dolomitic limestone.

| Other: | See boron (B) recommendation below. |
Fact Sheet:
Coastal Plain only:
For clover seed production, apply 1 pound of boron (B) per acre. For Coastal Plain Soils only, apply 30 pounds potash per acre when the soil test level is high rather than none at all.
Piedmont only:
For clover seed production, apply 1 pound of boron (B) per acre.
