It was 7 months later that result was given in the first review, and it’s really super slow. I don’t know what the hell the editors were doing. By now it has been almost a year since I submitted the manuscript, and no results were given. The reminder letters were sent countless times and all the replies were just to wait.

The questions asked by the experts are very demanding. The first author has published 15 SCI articles. It was the most difficult this time. There were not many comments, but they are difficult to address.

If I could revise faster, the review time could be shortened by about a month. The manuscript is sent for external review after two months of submission. External review last for two months, we revised the manuscript for two months, and it was accepted in two months after returning the revision.

This is an old journal of soil science and plant nutrition; a favorite of the older generation of soil scientists. The impact factor of this journal is not high, and the innovation requirements of the article are not high. However, the credibility and guiding significance of the article data must be very strong.

In a similar situation, an additional reviewer, who is a chief scientist in the same field in Europe, surprisingly left their name on the manuscript during the review process and provided suggestions that basically required a major revision. The quality of the journal is still there.

First review: Three months of major revisions, both reviewers were very thorough.
Second review: One month, one reviewer recommended acceptance, while the other asked a few questions and indicated no need for additional review. Minor revisions were requested.
Third review: Half a month, the editor requested changes to a few details.
Overall, the journal editor was very thorough, and the quality was sufficient, but unfortunately it is in the third tier.
Is it common for this journal to add reviewers during the review process?

Established journals, trusted by the older generation, I hope the impact factor can increase. In this fast-paced era, the number of articles is still less than 100

The two reviewers in the first review agreed to publish, but in the second review, an additional reviewer rejected it, leading to the rejection.

How long does it usually take to know the results after the revision has been edited?

Old-established journals with high language requirements have great influence.
