I sent in a sample of my garden soil to Auburn University for testing, mu soil was in pretty good shape except it could use some potash and a little borax for root crops. The testers gave me a sheet to show how much to use in a 100 square ft area.

Yep, why i dug out pappy fire pit twice this fall and layit out and turned in my beds. If you buy common fertilzer now it comes with potash in it. You plant in same place for years without potash you will get roots disease without it.
My wife picked volley ball sized Bibb lettuce. Cool weather lettuce is fine eating. Herbs are all doung well. My big Rosemary lived outside by foundation ok. Had to cover up in snow and ice with a bunch of blankets and tarps. Made fresh lamb chops on Easter griiled with olive oil and fresh Rosemary. Pink and juicy. Fine fine fine.
