   I'd highly getting a soil test for your area.  Each place is different, of   
   course, but a good soil test can let you know what you need to add.  For   
   example, I know that if you see dandilions in your yard, it's low on calcium.   
      
   Both of my parents are certifed master gardners from Oregon State University   
   and have been gardening since I can remember.   
      
   I'd suggest contacting your local county extension agent and talking to them   
   about resources they recommend.  They'll know best for your area.
