Espoma Soil Acidifier is the finest, most effective soil acidifier available. It contains all natural
minerals that can be used to correct the problem of alkaline soil.
Directions
One pound equals approx. 2 cupfuls
For Hydrangeas & Blueberries:
Apply in the spring to lower soil pH. For new plants use 1-1/4 cups. For established plants use
2-1/2 cups. Spread evenly around the plant out to the drip line and water well. Repeat in 60 day
intervals until desired pH or bloom color is achieved.
Broadcast Rates:
Apply 12 lbs. per 100 sq. ft. for each one point reduction in soil pH desired. For heavy clay soils
increase rate to 15 lbs. Gradual reduction in soil pH is preferred as dramatic reduction can result
