SULPHUR GRANULES +90S
Granular Element Sulfur is an effective soil amendment used to correct alkali, saline, and high-pH soils by lowering soil pH through acidification. Repeat applications over time improve the soil by building sulphur-oxidizing bacteria (Thiobacillus) populations that cause a number of important benefits, including soil acidification.
The amount of sulphur required is dependent on soil texture. Clay and organic matter act as a buffer, absorbing and releasing mineral ions. Relatively little sulphur is needed on sands, whereas soils high in clay or organic matter require much more. It is essential to apply and incorporate sulphur before planting. This allows the sulphur time to react and lowers the soil pH before planting. Refrain from assuming that the change can be completed in a short time.
Sulphur cannot be easily incorporated into the soil after plants are present. Surface-applied sulphur provides the same pH reduction as incorporated material but takes longer. Recheck soil pH before planting and apply additional sulphur if needed. Do not apply more than 400g per 10m2 (100ft2) at a time to established plantings. When large amounts are needed, spread the application out over several years.
APPLICATION:
- Application rates vary by soil type, crop, and maturity and should be determined by professional soil analysis.
