So is your idea to continue to ammend your garden with compost, etc, and supplement with the ACT until your soil is corrected?

I believe there are two major points to the equation. To improve the soil and to combat the nasties on the plants.
When the soil is up to par, in other words it will grow well, compaction has gone, and a soil test gives me all the answers to good growing conditions. Then I will be able to concentrate more on foliar spraying, possibly less frequently than I do now.
