What it will tell you

Take 3 cores halfway between the stem and dripline of your plant add them to a sealable bag. 

Seal the bag with the air left inside it – do not expel the air from the bag, as this will limit the oxygen available to the biology in the sample which may result in anaerobic conditions being formed.

 Label: All sample bags should be labelled with the name of the sample on the *outside* using permanent marker or an affixed label. 

Please do not put any identifying information about your sample on a piece of paper and place it inside the bag. The paper will disintegrate, become food for microbes, and potentially change the biology of your sample. 

Take 3 random core samples representative of the area you want analysed and follow the instructions above.

Take 5 cores from different areas and depths of your heap and follow the instructions above.
