Neudorff

Organic formulations and a soil test

Neudorff has built a business on formulations positioned as organic and biologically based, and two of its products reach this site.

The lawn treatment is a combination: a fertiliser carrying iron and potassium and described as stopping moss and weed. As with every combination on this shelf, the page names it as a feed as well as a treatment, because that decides whether it belongs in a spring or an autumn programme.

The pH test is the entry worth singling out, and not because of what it costs. Soil acidity is the factor most often blamed for a mossy lawn and least often measured, and the whole moss shelf is downstream of a guess that a ten-minute test would settle.

This site’s soil tester shelf is otherwise electronic probes of varying credibility. A chemical test with a stated number of applications is a different kind of article, and the page says so.

What any product may be applied to, at what rate, is on its label. This site reports the coverage as stated and hands the rest to the label.

    • The only pH measurement on this shelf that does not depend on probe contact

    • Eight uses, and then it is finished — the probe meters here are reusable indefinitely

    Best for: Deciding whether a lawn needs lime, which is the one soil question worth measuring properly
