Hey team,
I had a discussion with my soil scientist today. I wanted to follow up with him to try to better understand the difference or correlation between PH, and buffer PH. While I still don't understand what it means, I did get the other answer I was looking for. That answer is that I do not need to lime. I can, but I should do it slowly and continue to test once a year.
He shared with me the guide he uses to make recommendations for nutrient application from South Dakota State University. I thumbed through it, and it is an excellent guide. The notes on buffer PH and liming recommendations is found on page 24.
