“Very high phorphorous

Question

My garden soil test returned a PH of 6.9 with normal nitrogen and other minerals. The phosphorous level however was off the high scale. What can I plant or do to lower this level.

Answer 1

First thing is to stop using all-purpose fertilizers, bone meal, superphosphate or other additives with a high middle number in NPK. Here is a helpful document on all things phosphorus in soil. I think it will answer your questions.
