This will tell you Ph only...If you want to grow a good food plot get a soil test done where you can tell them what you want to plant and they give you Ph and lime - fert recomondations per acre so the seed/plant will grow. Not a huge fan of BB SEEDS but Whitetail institute has seeds that will grow in Main and there soil test is 10 plus shipping.If your plot is under around an acre buying seeds from places like this is perfect.We use there soil test every year !! You will get out of it what you put in..... Do it proper the first time and you will be killin deer on it this fall...
