Soil testing and amendment is the process of analyzing soil to determine its nutrient content, pH level, and texture, followed by adding the necessary amendments to optimize growing conditions for plants. This maintenance task involves collecting soil samples from different areas of the garden and sending them to a lab for analysis. Based on the results, gardeners can apply amendments such as lime to raise soil pH, sulfur to lower pH, or organic matter like compost to improve soil structure and fertility. Regular soil testing and amendment are essential for maintaining a healthy garden, ensuring that plants have access to the nutrients they need for robust growth and that the soil conditions are suitable for the specific plants being grown.
