Does it help lower the pH in soil?

Yes. I used it in Super Soil, and it works great if you add a little more than recommended. Hope this helps!

I don't know, all I can say is that my tomatoes are growing taller and look healthier.

I alternated it with organic fertilizer and it seemed to work well. I don't think it's for acid loving plants. I am sold on it, though. It really made a difference in my vegetable garden last year.

I have and it seems to work well. I think it will slow evaporation and keep the soil around the plants moist longer.

It could be, but it is designed to control larval bugs like Japanese beetles who lay eggs in soil after mating. The milky spore infects the resulting larvae and breaks the reproductive process. You would have to have potted plants with beetle problems that have deep soil to make it worth while applying.

it won't throw ur ph off. what ever u have it on it doesn't drop or push ur ph at all. this is what i see from my grow. even in my hydro.

ph 6.5-7.5 average, the decay will change to more acidic, it can be soil tested

I think it does. It is supposed to break down anything organic. But hard to tell overall effectiveness, unless you can actually examine the pipes. I just have to gauge by how slow the water drains out.

ph level and if you do your research certain plants grow better in higher or lower ph level so you can plant what is best for your soil or raise or lower the ph for what you want to grow. this really makes a difference in production of the plants

I don't think it alters ph. It just adds trace minerals that your soil might be missing and your plants need, and adds to the health of the plant. I used this last summer and had the best garden ever.

take soil samples to your local extension office and they will give you a full analysis of your soil including ph. Do not use the rapid test strips as they are not even close to accurate.

it has not affected my pH at all....just get yourself a couple big handfuls and sprinkle it around each plant baseand work it in the top two or three inches and water....And if you really wanna get em going naturally...Get some Dr Earth #5 and mix that in there....Wow is all i can say

My Ph did go down... But my proof is in my plants, no more yellowing leaves, I do not have to use Ph down. I also can now drink my tap water, does not look cloudy..

It depends on the water. But it does tend to bring the ph down especially if you are using a high concentration. Some people recommend using it to control the ph.

The product is used to lower the PH in soil. It does not contain anything that is toxic to plants or animals if used as directed to lower the PH of the soil. I have been using it for my blueberry plants with good success.

This compound is very SLOW in acting and also not very aggressive. Since the concentration is not listed it will be a trial and error effort for you, together with buckets of patience. I've found much more effective acidification with dead pine needles mixed into the soil.

I don't know, but I used it this summer sprinkled it at planting time and during the summer on top. It helped to keep stink bugs off and as far I know it adds nutrient to the soil.Will use it again, Plants did great.
