Welcome! I'm not very good with mineral analysis yet so hopefully someone else will chime in. I know what's available and what seems to be working in my area, but I'm not too great at analysing percentages. Good luck!

I personally really like the Sweetlix Meat Maker and actually just read a discussion on minerals over at the goat spot where it had some other fans as well.
