For most back yard gardens one sample is often sufficient. For larger gardens or farms, several samples may be required in various areas to give you more accurate information.

Grid sampling and zone sampling are often used in larger fields. In smaller areas, composite sampling can be done where you are taking approx. a dozen core samples in a random spread out pattern in the garden. These soil cores make up one sample.

Sampling depth for most row type crops is 6 inches. Deeper samples from 12 inches to 24 inches is suggested for orchards or trees.

Soil probes are best for collecting samples.
