I applied this to my soil in the fall and spring, I still notice grannules of this in my soil, when does it normally break down...?

Soid particles long after application might indicate an inferior grade. Good grades turn to sulfuric acid in the soil pretty quickly (weeks-months) but even they will leave residues behind.
Have you soil tested since? Did the pH shift as predicted?

No I havent tested the soil since I applied it over the fall and spring, the book says the biology needs to have 65 degree plus soil temps to convert. When I applied the sulphur its consistancy was like mash potatoe flakes, some are larger and I find present, others are gone. I am anxious to see what my Ph is, I also added to bails of 3.2Ph peat moss so that should help too. We will see, Thanks for the answer Steve.
