Agronomic Benefits To Using Sulfur Burners
Sulfur Burner Science
Treating hard irrigation water with a sulfur burner is done to precipitate out calcium bicarbonate as calcium sulfate (gypsum), and produce hydrogen ions to lower water pH. This practice improves water quality, soil chemistry, nutrient availability and crop health.

Pacific Northwest Handbooks: Blueberry Soil pH
Soil pH of 4.5 to 5.5 is optimum for blueberry production. Soil pH values significantly outside of this range are associated with a variety of problems. Surveys indicate this as one of the more important problems throughout the blueberry industry.
Blueberry Cultivars for the Pacific Northwest
There are five main types of blueberries grown in the United States: northern highbush, southern highbush, rabbiteye, lowbush, and half-high. The northern highbush is most common type grown worldwide and in the Pacific Northwest.
