Does Holly Tone Make Soil Acidic

Question From: NEW YORK
Q: does holly tone make the soil more acidic or does it just feed acid loving plants. I have. A Japanese andromeda that has developed chlorosis and needs soil adjustment to more acidity.

A:

Barbara, Holly Tone is a fertilizer not a soil acidifier. I recommend you have your soil tested and use the recommended amount of sulfer to lower the pH of the soil. Best And Happy Yardening, Nancy
