Best Affordable Soil
#12
We add micronized Azomite to our beds. The mineral content isn't a type to affect the pH.

The soil around here tends to run acidic, and especially when we get acid rain from the vog / eruptions. Eventually you'll want to test the pH of your mix and compare it to what the plants you are growing like. You may need to adjust the pH with some dolomite or other product. The wrong pH can prevent the plants from taking in nutrients and no amount of fertilizer will assuage the situation. There are different types of dolomite, the micronized version works more quickly, they have more course varieties that can take two years to adjust the pH.
