Acid-based
extractions are typically performed on soil samples from fields
used for agronomic production; most university soils testing
labs affiliated with Agronomy departments used acid-extraction
techniques. Linked at right is an example of a submittal form
Maria would need to fill out to include with the media sample.
She sends in a sample from several pots that contain plants
showing symptomology and a sample from several pots that contain
plants that appear healthy to the Kansas
State University Soil Testing Lab. |
