Nah. For this soil test you let your dirt water sit overnight and let it settle before you get a liquid sample.

What are the four vials for? N, P, K and S?

You would get much better results sending a sample to the lab for about the same price as what you paid for this kit.

Most labs I've dealt with charge between $25 to $80 per sample, with the average price in the $25 to $50 range.

I agree sending it off would yield better results, but this kit was like $11 and does N, P, K, pH x10
