Every plant and crop has its own soil preference. In addition to nutrients, soil PH is important, among other things. We distinguish ph preference into 3 plants: acid-loving, pH-neutral and lime-loving. Each plant has its own preferred acidity (pH). If a pH is too high or too low for a plant, the absorption of nutrient elements does not proceed optimally. Fortunately, you can influence soil acidity to give each plant an ideal nutrient medium. Use our lime fertilizers such as Lime Magnesium granules or pure Algae Lime for this purpose. Below we have conveniently listed plant preferences in alphabetical order.
