Soil PH Control
Tiger 90CR Elemental Sulfur
Pure elemental sulfur is a vital secondary macronutrient that can be applied to deficient soils or around acid loving plants, where lower pH is necessary. Sulfur bacteria use Sulfur as energy to create carbon dioxide and water. Sulfur is either mined or it is naturally separated from “sour crude oil” by a heating process.
Frequently, nutrient deficiency symptoms are displayed by crops grown in soils with a pH greater than 7.8. Availability of most essential nutrients is limited as soil pH increases above 7.8. Plant nutrient deficiencies under these conditions can be managed temporarily by foliar nutrient application and for a longer term by reducing soil pH. Soil pH may be lowered with application of TIGER 90CR Elemental Sulphur.
When TIGER 90CR sulfur is soil applied and goes through an oxidation process, sulfuric acid and H+ ions are released, soil is acidified and pH is lowered. Sulphur oxidation is a biological process.
