Tiger-Sul 90CR Sulphur - Organic Sulphur Bentonite Fertilizer - 50 Pounds

Tiger 90CR Organic is a sulfur-based soil amendment and fertilizer designed to lower soil pH and provide essential sulfur for organic crop production systems.

Chemical Composition and Formulation
The active ingredient is elemental sulfur. It is formulated as a bentonite clay-based granular product containing 90% sulfur. The product is OMRI Listed for use in organic production.

Functional Mechanism and Design
When incorporated into the soil and exposed to moisture and microbial activity, the elemental sulfur oxidizes to form sulfuric acid. This reaction effectively reduces soil pH and increases soil acidity. The bentonite clay carrier provides improved handling characteristics and aids in the controlled degradation of the granules.

Target Applications and Performance
This product is specifically designed as a soil amendment for alkaline soils to adjust and lower pH levels. Its primary functions are to correct high pH conditions, improve nutrient availability in alkaline soils, and provide a season-long supply of sulfate sulfur to crops. It is suitable for a wide range of organic cropping systems.

Application Specifications and Protocol
The product is applied as a dry, broadcast granular material and must be incorporated into the soil. Application rates are determined by soil test results and the specific pH adjustment required for the target crop. The product can be applied pre-plant or as a top-dress, but soil incorporation is necessary for the oxidation reaction to occur effectively.

Handling and Safety
As a granular soil amendment, standard handling procedures for dry fertilizers apply. The product should be stored in a cool, dry place. Applicators should avoid generating and inhaling dust during handling and loading. Appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and a dust mask, should be worn. Always consult the official product label for complete safety and use instructions.
