Thanks Dan.

FlDeerman, 10-10-10 is ok, general purpose fertilizer, you normally can't go wrong using it. 4-12-12 would be a bit better for legumes/clovers. I use a locally available 8-20-28. But, if your soil test said you need 80 lbs of phosphorus, and 80 lbs of potassium per acre, you would need to put down ...

800 lbs of 10-10-10, or

667 lbs of 4-12-12, or

<400 lbs of 8-20-28

Its good to keep the quantities in mind when figuring the work/cost/time involved. FWIW
