Manutec Alum: Your Go-To Soil Amendment for Acid-Loving Plants and Blue Hydrangeas

Hey There, Garden Enthusiasts!

We get it, soil pH can be a real puzzle, especially if you’re looking to keep your hydrangeas blue or grow other acid-loving plants like azaleas and blueberries. Well, Manutec Alum is your secret weapon! It’s specifically designed for those quick pH adjustments that make all the difference in your Australian garden.

Why Manutec Alum is the Choice for You

Get Those Hydrangeas to Stay Blue!
Want to know a garden secret? Aluminium Sulphate, or as we like to call it, ALUM, is the key to keeping those hydrangea flowers as blue as the summer sky. ALUM ensures that aluminium ions get taken up by the plant, but only under acidic conditions. So, if you want blue sepals come flowering time, you need a soil pH of 5.5 or lower.

Fast-Action for pH Perfection

Manutec Alum isn’t just about good looks; it’s also fast-acting. Say goodbye to the waiting game. Your soil pH will lower in no time, and your plants will thank you for it!

So Versatile, You’ll Want to Use It Everywhere!

And let’s not forget, Manutec Alum is more than just a one-hit-wonder. It’s perfect for a range of acid-loving plants, not just hydrangeas.

User-Friendly for Everyone
Never dealt with soil amendments before? No problem! Manutec Alum is as easy to apply as sprinkling sugar on a pancake.

Eco-Friendly Goodness
Last but not least, this soil amendment is eco-friendly. That means you’re doing your part for the planet while taking care of your garden.

How to Use Manutec Alum: The Nitty-Gritty

Directions for Blue Hydrangeas
Dissolve 30 grams (that’s about 2 heaped tablespoons) in 5 litres of water. Apply this over 5 square meters of soil or around four full-sized hydrangeas. Start this regimen right after your winter pruning and continue every two weeks until the flowering season is over. One 2.5kg bag should have you covered.

When Should I Start Using Manutec Alum?
