Soil nutrient levels might change more rapidly than you realize. This has implications for whether nutrients should be applied as fertilizer, or not. I showed data from an experiment I did when I was a graduate student in this blog post:

Jason Haines has written about a similar topic, and explained it perhaps more clearly than I have. I recommend his blog post on "Do you have enough?": https://fusariummy.blogspot.com/2023/02/do-you-have-enough.html

To read more about this experiment, see this chapter in my dissertation: http://archive.lib.msu.edu/tic/thesdiss/woods2006h.pdf
