  1. Is soil sulphur a product that can be used on a lawn to help the soil? I don't have calichi but the soil is a bit on the alkaline side.

  2. Roses are my favourite flower. They are the perfect flower – beautiful in every way. I love the shape of roses and their beautiful colours. … A white rose is the whitest white, a red rose is the reddest red.

  3. Really appreciate all your videos, Im trying to get the park near me to buy blend, I have been taking care of the grounds there for a few years now, I love the space but it definitely needs some proper nourishment.

  4. Here in San Joaquin County Northern California and our hard pan is horrible. They use D11 Cats with 8ft rippers to break the soil here.
    Using the Sulfur is it ok to plant right on top of it or do we need to give it time to breakdown first?

  5. What would you recommend for grass that dries or yellows during the summer?

  6. Caliche is a four letter word, at my last house we excavated and removed with a backhoe and then amended the soil 36” to 48”. I may give this a shot as I’ve probed the soil with a 60” probe around my new home and we have it, but it’s deeper so a lot of soil to displace. I may give this a chance at the least it may make it easy to remove if we decide to excavate anyways. Thanks for the videos and great products!!

  7. Excellent. Thank you so much. I'm in Las Vegas and YAH….Caliche is just awful. My roommate purchased a jack hammer when we thought we were going to start gardening and quickly discovered caliche. Jackhammering….we gave up on that quickly. Impossible. Who knew, you could just get some sulfer watered in it and that will solve the issue. Can't wait to try this.
