Topic: soil tests

[bedrockdave]

 have just bought a soil tester but all the info with it is for flowers and shrubs, does anyone know where I can get a chart or something to tell me how different vegetables like there soil and what to do if its wrong ??? ???

I don,t know of a chart for soil.Carrots should not have had a recent manuring as this can cause them to fork.Tomatoes prefer a more acidic soil but I think you can get away with it in the ground.Blueberry definitely needs acidic soil.
I am sure someone will be along soon who knows about a chart. ;D

Take a look at http://www.thegardenhelper.com/soilPH.htm

Quite a few common crops are listed and their ideal PH level.

Hope this helps.
