Hello from an old guy who grew up in Forest Grove and even after sixty years of living in the mid-west still am homesick for the Pacific Northwest.

To your question: It seems like a whole lot more ingredients than necessary. Not being particularly enamored with purely organic gardening maybe your recipe is just what is needed for your place. I know my father had a very large garden in Forest Grove and always said how different it was from the Iowa soil he was used to. Weather was the biggest factor.

I am glad to see you included soil analysis into the mix because I feel that is very important to any additions you make to the soil. Couldn't the recipe use fewer and more basic ingredients to achieve the formula you require? Good luck and good gardening.
