soil test results

I had my soil tested several weeks ago and now have the results. On intial inspection, not as helpful as I'd thought it would be...perhaps b/c I don't understand it all? If anyone out there can offer some insight, I would be ever so much appreciative!

Soil ph: 6.0

Soil type: loam/light clay

phosphorus: high

potassium: medium

magnesium: high

calcium: high

I am gardening vegetables in raised beds that are 1/2 good topsoil and 1/2 purchased compost material (manure and mushroom compost) I have my own compost pile growing quite nicely but nothing that I will be able to use any time soon. I am trying to garden all organically this year so if you have any suggestions on that too, I'm all ears!
