What’s up everybody?
Today I’m going to be talking all about sulfate of potash. I know this sounds like it’s going to be super exciting and trust me it is. This is a 10,000 foot view without getting into great detail, just hitting the high points.

*** I reversed my math as I usually talk about this the opposite way when I'm talking soil tests***
***PPM is equal to twice the pounds not half.****


Here’s a deal, I ordered a bag of 0-0-48 SOP from YardMastery.com. The reason I did that is because I recommend this material to an off a lot of people through my soil testing interpretation offerings. In many areas of the country it is difficult to locate and what you can find online is often very small, is not granular and is very expensive.

I had a conversation with Allyn Hane a couple months ago about adding sulfate of potash to his offerings on YardMastery.com. With the help of Sunniland, he was able to locate a high-quality sulfate of potash granular with a coating that works to control dust as well as slow the breakdown of the material.

BENEFITS OF POTASSIUM SULFATE (SOP)
While muriate of potash (also known as potassium chloride) is the most common potash fertilizer, serving as an excellent source of potassium and chloride, it is not appropriate in all settings. As many are discovering, SOP not only improves turf and crop quality, but it also presents a number of advantages:
REDUCED CHLORIDES
Chloride makes up a significant component of MOP. While this is preferable for some crops, it can be damaging to others that are sensitive to chlorides, such as some fruits, vegetables, and nuts. Many chloride-sensitive crops fall into the high-value category, so optimizing quality and yield are especially critical.
Additionally, if MOP is added to soils already rich in chlorides, toxicity can occur. When working with chloride-sensitive crops or chloride-rich soils, SOP provides an optimal solution, as it is substantially lower in chlorides.
ADDED SULFUR
In addition to potassium, potassium sulfate also provides plant-available sulfur. Sulfur deficiencies have become increasingly common in recent years, making products that include the secondary nutrient increasingly desirable.
LOWER SALINITY
Potassium sulfate has a lower salt index than most potash fertilizers, making it the preferred choice when soil salinity is a concern.

Be sure to click the link below and get a bag today to make sure you’ve got it in your toolbox. I do not get paid nor do I make a commission on the referral, this is just a product that I get behind and suggest to a significant amount of people to have in their fertilizer program. I AM NOT AN AFFILIATE OF YARDMASTERY.COM OR SUNNILAND FERTILIZER. I am my own man, thank you very much.
