"I think it's
the Gardens Alive catalog that showed me I needed boron for my strawberries.
Stands to reason if they need it, it's deficient here.
I thought gardening was supposed to be fun! Or was that relaxing?
" Hi Toni,
You may know, boron is VERY easy to overdo.
Too much and it can sterilize the soil. I've read somewhere around 1ppm is
about right. A foot acre of soil weighs about 4 million pounds. That
means if you had NO boron, you would need about 4 lbs./acre of pure boron to
bring it up to recommended levels.
