153  Broadcast 50 lbs nitrogen per acre and recommended phosphate and potash and work into the soil prior to planting.  Sidedress with 50 lbs nitrogen per acre after first fruit set, and then again later in the season if needed.

651  The soil test boron is low, however, this is not a boron sensitive crop, therefore no boron is recommended.  (When soil test boron is low)

652  The soil test manganese is low, however, this is not a manganese sensitive crop, therefore no manganese is recommended.  (When soil test manganese is low)

154  Broadcast 50 lbs nitrogen per acre, the recommended phosphate, and one-third of the potash and work into the soil prior to planting.  Apply 135 lbs nitrogen per acre and two-thirds of the potash recommendation through the drip irrigation system.  Sidedress with 25 to 30 lbs nitrogen per acre later in the season if needed.

651  The soil test boron is low, however, this is not a boron sensitive crop, therefore no boron is recommended.  (When soil test boron is low)
