The pH test is probably close enough. I would't trust the lime recommendation. More information than just pH is needed for a good lime number (soil OM and/or buffer pH). http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/SS161

I have never grown lablab. But from what I have read, it can tolerate acidic soil. As low as 4.6 and they dont require real fertile soil. So if it were me, I would plant!. Now if it was a huge field or it was a perennial like alfalfa or clover, no way would I do that with out a proper soil test. I would get the lab test on the soil as soon as possible and just be ready to make corrections after the lablab has done its thing. JM2C

my lablab seeds just came in, the shipping time was impressive (2-3 days)! i'm going to purchase corn seed to mix with the lablab seed prior to broadcasting on my plots.
