Samples taken outside of the band test in the middle to low teens.
All roots take up phosphorus.
I want to apply 50 pounds of urea this winter or early spring, and then apply 30 pounds in a 2X2 band at planting time. It seems to me more of the N would be available with the application of dry urea. If the soil is pretty bare it would be okay. Thirty pounds of N in 2x2 band is not a problem. I'm unsure of ratios that need to be observed.
