  • Asked by Daniel from Houston, Tx
    02/18/2021
    Q
    Is it okay to apply Hi Yield Soil Sulfur in the late winter?
    My soilkit.com report indicated I need to apply this product to lower the PH of my yard. The report does not say when I should apply it, nor does the label on the Hi-Yield Soil Sulfur package indicate the best time to apply. Spring is just around the corner here in Houston, so I thought it would be good to apply it now, but I don't want to harm my lawn by applying it too early. Thank you in advance for your time.
    A

    You can apply a soil amendment such as Hi-Yield Soil Sulfur in early Spring before you would need fertilizer. Be sure there is no snow or ice and the ground is not frozen when you want to apply your amendments. Lowering the pH of your soil can be a slow process, so you will want to continue soil testing at least once a year (possibly more often in warmer areas) for best results.

    Q
    How much will the 1-2lb per 100 sq. ft. application lower pH when using Hi-Yield Soil Sulfur?
    I understand it's complex, and so I might not get a straightforward answer; I have a pH of about 8 and extremely low soil salinity, if that helps.
    A

    Hi-Yield Soil Sulfur acts as a soil conditioner as well as aiding in lowering pH in soils with excessive alkaline levels.  We have supplemental labels from the manufacturer that go over how much is needed based on your current soil pH levels and your goal pH.

    Q
    Can I broadcast spread Hi-Yield Soil Sulfur over my lawn and water it in to help lower pH level over time?
    I know it's not a magic bullet but there are very few ways to lower pH safely on lawns without tilling.
    A

    Hi-Yield Soil Sulfur is applied to the lawn at the rate of 1 - 2 lbs. per 100 square feet. You will need to spade or mix into soil. With this being a slow acting yet long lasting treatment, it’s effect on soil acidity will not be complete until 6 - 8 weeks after application.
