Strange to see phosphorus so high but I don't think the boron will be a problem, isn't that the same a 2.36 ppm? That's not super high, really.

MaticP, try to not take this as any advice, but I Googled Boron and Phosphorous and
this is what I used as a base and *((( simply replaced the element with each different element )))*:

What level in ppm is too high of phosphorus for atlantic giant pumpkin?

and

is 91.9 mg per 100 grams of soil too high for atlantic giant pumpkin?

...919 ppm...

What IIIIII found I shouldn't convey, as I am not a soil...anything other than I get dirty by digging in it, lol, but:

"Yes, 91.9 mg/100g (which is roughly 919 ppm or mg/kg) of Phosphorus (P) is considered extremely high for most soil tests, far exceeding..."

In my own opinion, rectifying these super-high levels may result in better everything for your AG adventure.
It may come down to watering your plants incessantly, even now, per the dry surfaces I saw last year.
The WATER could be checked as well for its nutrient level(s).
I will strive to be outta here on this, to prevent any (further?) misleading information.
Good Luck. eric g
