Manure, compost, and growing media all look ready before they actually are.
Organic Amendments & Media
Unfinished compost doesn’t help soil. It competes with your crop.
Applying too early or getting the ratios wrong can rob nitrogen, stall roots, or damage the exact crop you’re trying to feed.
Precise Laboratory Analysis
Manure & Compost
A guessed application rate either wastes nutrients or overloads the field. Accurate N-P-K and micronutrient values tell you exactly what you’re applying.
We provide comprehensive testing for soil, plant tissue, water, feed, organic amendments, fertilizers, and agricultural products through our specialized scientific divisions.

Growing
Consistency your crop can’t get anywhere else.
Potting mixes and substrates that vary batch to batch mean inconsistent results row to row. We test for root-zone consistency you can rely on.

Frequently Asked Questions
Precision testing.
Clearer answers.
Appearance and smell aren’t reliable indicators. Maturity and stability testing confirms it, unfinished compost can immobilize nitrogen and harm seedlings.
It controls how fast nutrients release. Get it wrong and nutrients either lock up or release too fast to be useful.
Reference values are averages. Actual nutrient content varies by source, storage, and handling, testing gives you the real number for your application rate.
Inconsistent water holding capacity or CEC between batches means inconsistent plant performance, even when everything else is done right.
