Dave,
As long as you are in here.
I have a soil nutrient question.
At NMSU there is a veggie growing table with the N- P requirements for
chiles showing N = 1.5 and P = 1.5.
On another NMSU page there is a statement that Potassium is very high in NM
soils ergo K levels are not given on NMSU pages.
Not even in the mineral content of cow flop..
Most other veggie listings I can find list that P and K should be a 1 to 1
ratio. But chiles are not on most veggie list.
NMSU is the only site that shows the N requirements for chiles is lower than
for tomatoes or bells.
Bottom line is can I assume that for chiles the P - K ratio remains true
for chiles in soils that are potassium poor.
Thanks
L.B.
