Having your soil tested every 3 years is recommended. Once in our hands, the analysis usually takes about 3 to 5 working days. Below are web links to our other web pages that give you detailed instructions on how to collect your soil samples. Do not forget to also fill out the questionnaire so that we know exactly what the recommendation is for (this is because different crops have different requirements). Mail us your soil samples, the completed appropriate questionnaire, plus your payment to:
Soil Nutrient Analysis Laboratory
6 Sherman Place, U-102
University of Connecticut
Storrs, CT 06269-5102
If you prefer, prepaid soil sample kits which include a questionnaire, plastic bag and mailing envelop can be purchased at the Soil Testing Laboratory (see address above), the Home & Garden Education Center, or your local Cooperative Extension office.
