    Great video, the rear lawn looks like it's coming along nicely. Keen to see the progress on the front as well. Pleased you adjusted the audio, watched this video without touching the volume. 🙂👍

    So how well does the Bunnings test work? Does it tell u exactly what your soil is lacking and so what u should apply?

      Bunnings one just shows up a colour and from there you amend based on the scale

    So how often do u need to be applying the ammonia now to correct it?

      Generally pH corrections take some time. I'll test mine again in spring I think

    Which sprinkler are you using at the end there? Think that might be a good option for mind

    Hey mate, really enjoying your videos. I have had lots of experience with alkaline soils over the years when i was a Golf Course Superintendent. Two of the courses i worked at need acid injection systems attached to the irrigation system to help remedy the issues. In my time i found that any granular products i applied really only had a impact on the top inch or two of the surface of the soil. With most or the roots at least a meter deep it really wasn't effective. The only way i could get them past the surface was a reno time through deep core aeration and getting the products down the holes. If you keep at it over the years you will get there. Even a number of cores each year helps accelerate the process dramatically. Dont put all your eggs in the sulphur based products basket. Organics are great, and the acid released from the slow break down in the soil of these refined products does do the trick as well. Use the fine products, not the pellets. If you want to get really deep in your soil, you could also slowly spend some time "drilling" the soil. Use a long timber bit on your driver and start smashing some holes deep into the profile. Mix your organica with some dry clean sand and get it down the holes. You will be suprised how quickly that area will turn around. The effect will also last for years.
    Hope your front yard reno comes back nicely.
