garden soil

I am not sure if you can help me because this is in a greenhouse, but I am sure you have some knowledge, as it is just soil. I had a soil test done on my soil in my greenhouse and my Nitrate-nitrogen level are very high 72.0 ppm. How can I lower this? The pH was high 7.4, organic material high 11.8, potassium high 183.9 ppm. he soil is sandy, clay loam in texture. What can I do to correct this? If you can’t help me, any suggestion of who might be able to?

Thank you for your time and thoughts.

One of the first things after receiving your soil test results is knowing what the soil and nutrient needs are of the particular plants that you are growing. Not every plant has the same needs.
