Organic sources of sulfur are often preferred in sustainable cannabis cultivation because they improve soil health while delivering essential nutrients in a natural, bioavailable form. Unlike synthetic alternatives, organic amendments typically release sulfur slowly, ensuring a steady nutrient supply over time.
In our last post, we talked about why sulfur is important for plant health [link]. But just like with any nutrient, too much or too little sulfur can cause problems. Today, we’re going to break down what happens when sulfur levels get out of balance, and some of the most common causes. Let’s dig in!
Sulfur is a naturally occurring element that’s found in soil, air, and water. It’s considered a secondary macronutrient, which means plants need it in smaller amounts than nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium—but it’s still vital to their growth and overall health.
