I found this material which claims to be 90% sulfur. So 20lbs of it should = 18lbs actual sulfur. According to the soil calculater on the GPC website, that should lower the pH in my 3000 sq ft patch from 7.4 to 7.1. Is this a good idea or am I overlooking anything?

I love this Tampa AG website by the way. Thanks

I'd go to a big fertilizer place that sales fertilizer to your local farmers. Locally here, I can buy a 50 pound back for $27.50. Plus your soil test should of told you how much to put down per 1,000 square feet

I don't pay for the recommendations. I spoke with John Vincent and he helped determine that 50lbs of Tiger 90 is good for my patch. Thanks!
