You really should get a soil sample.
Those bags are $19 a bag. I dont have a lot of money to put in to this like some guys do. Yes, they are (2) 50lb bags. When i spread it, it seemed like plenty. The guy at the elevator said that would be the perfect amount, if not 19-19-19 then use 12-12-12. The beans are growing good without the fertilizer and lime, im pretty sure theyll do good with what i put down.
