I have a somewhat silly question.....exactly how is one supposed to sample for the Logan Labs tests? I've checked on their website and can't quite determine what to do.

Should I take many samples from both my front and back yard, mix them together, and send in one single sample bag?

Or, do I send in many samples from all over my yard? Or at least a one from the front and one from the back?

I know the tests are $20...but is that $20 per bag you send in? Or $20 per shipment?

Thanks for the advice!

The sampling recommendations are in the Soil Management Part 1 article.

It is $20 per test.

I am wondering the same thing!

And the answer is the same - read the Soil Management Part 1 Article.
