Thanks, Terry. No need to dig out the catalog. I'll check at my local nursery and see if I can find Nasco on the web. If I have trouble, I'll let you know. Thanks again to everyone for their advice and assistance in finding these for me.

In a pinch you can get red and blue litmus at the drug store. It only gives you a ball park direction but its better than nothing. I have a little one time use Sudbury Ph & nitrogen tester I'm going to use but at $5.00 a pop its expensive. If your interested I can dig up the new Nasco farm and ranch catalog and give you the address or you can search the web. I think their address is www.nasco.com but I'm not sure. Terry
