Our Australian coastline is beautiful but is a big problem for Acid sulfate soil. Acid sulfate soils are natural sediments that contain iron sulfides and are very common along Australia’s east and west coast. When disturbed or exposed to air these soils can release acid, damaging built structures and harming or killing animals and plants.

Acidic soil can be a challenge in the garden. Some plants love it, and some plants hate it. If your soil’s pH is too low, your plants will struggle to survive. Acidic soil doesn’t have to be a death sentence, though. It’s possible to easily adjust the pH of your soil.

If your soil is too acidic or too alkaline, your plants won’t be able to get all the nutrients they need, no matter how much fertiliser you add. Test your soil pH to ensure your soil is between 6 and 7.

Too acidic? If your soil test indicates that your soil pH is too low or too acidic (which applies to most Australian soils) the solution is to add our earth friendly soil product ‘The Neutraliser’.

Our award winning product ‘The Neturaliser’ is the perfect product for correcting soil acidity. The Neutraliser is particularly useful in heavy, organic rich soils and garden beds or lawns where use of mineral fertilisers may produce acidic soils. It will also help plants obtain nutrients from the soil and assist the decomposition of organic matter. Remember not to use near acid-loving plants such as azaleas and camellias.

Too alkaline? If your soil is alkaline, it means it has a high pH. You can increase the acidity of your soil by adding things like compost and manures, leaf litter and mulch. Check out our composting booster products here.

pH testing kits are widely available from nurseries and hardware stores.
