Doesn't the acidity of the fertilizer kill the living biologically within the same jug? Watched something the other day about that happening. Or am I not fully understanding what was posted Thanks
It’s the salts that many fertilizers and pesticides are made of that kills the microbes, not acidity.
Correct and it is also the row placing of nutriets too. If you row place the nutrients, the plant has all it needs to grow so it doesn't use the biology in the soil. Biology needs a plant to feed it to survive so if we quit utilizing it, it will die off that way too.
