New Soil Test Lab Information
Unfortunately, due to budget cuts the NMSU soil test laboratory is no longer able to offer that service to the public.
It is a VERY good idea to get a soil test on your home garden area before you start adding amendments so 1) you know what to add to achieve the best growing conditions and, 2) to avoid wasting money adding nutrients when you already have an adequate amount.
