Soil sampling should occur in late fall after harvest or in early spring prior to seeding to allow samples to be collected and analyzed in time for fall or spring fertilization. Fall testing has the advantage of allowing the application and incorporation of fertilizers with fall tillage or winter precipitation. Spring testing, however, often provides a better indication of nutrient (especially nitrogen) availability immediately prior to plant growth.
Allow a minimum of two to three weeks for analyses, fertilizer purchase and application, and any other corrective measures to be taken before planting. Soil sampling can also be done during the growing season to aid in diagnosing plant growth problems. Landowners who observe a problem may want to sample the soil while symptoms are present to diagnose the problem and take corrective action during the current growing season
