Description
Fertrell Dry Aragonite, 0-0-0-39 Ca, 50 Lb A sea calcium that is exceptionally high in calcium and low in magnesium. Many soils have had dolomite lime added for years and the magnesium may be tying up other nutrients in the soil. Gypsum and aragonite should be used to offset a high magnesium content soil. When you buy aragonite you are receiving calcium that is highly soluble and can be applied spring or fall. Aragonite goes to work the moment it comes in contact with the soil. Aragonite brings 39% calcium, less than 1% magnesium with an array of trace minerals like boron, copper, iron, manganese, and zinc. Aragonite in its raw state (not dried) brings to the soil some biological benefits. We have seen on countless farms that by applying aragonite to the soil we are able to limit the amount of fertilizer that is needed to grow a quality crop. We believe this all happens because the aragonite stimulates the microbial life in the soil which in turn makes the nutrients available for plant utilization.
