I'm wondering if soil testing is really necessary for gardening. I know it helps determine the right fertilizers to use, but I'm curious if everyone out there is actually doing it or if there are alternative methods people prefer.

You could always try a homemade slurry test—it's a fun way to figure out your nutrient levels without a lab. Plus, it keeps the gardening process interesting!
Honestly, I just wing it! If I see veggies growing, I assume I'm doing something right. Who needs tests when you have optimism, right?
Love this attitude! Makes gardening feel more spontaneous and fun!
I don’t test my soil, but I think it really depends on your gardening style. Some folks swear by it, while others just feel it out as they go. Everyone has their own approach!

How does that work? And are we now gardening buddies? ?
