OCTOBER 23rd 2007
I finally found granular gypsum (sulphur @ 17.30% , calcium 22%) and pelletized 90% sulfur from a supplier in Leamington called Setteringtons. They both come in 50 lbs bags for $15.95 (sulfur) and $12.25 (gypsum). I will be adding all of the sulfur to my expanded patch at home (Alpha) to bring the pH down 0.3-0.4. Right now it is at 7.4. I don't want to bring it down too much at a time, just to be safe. The soil at Beta patch already has a pH. of 6.9, so that is perfect. The calcium levels at Alpha are roughly 2900 ppm and the levels at Beta are roughly 3450 ppm. I will add a 100 lbs bag of the granular to each patch (1450 sq feet).
