Mitchell Terreplex Carbon-Rich Acidifier is a professional soil amendment designed to improve soil chemistry by reducing bicarbonates and unwanted salts while increasing nutrient availability. Derived from plant-based organic acids sourced from tree lignin, this biodegradable liquid provides an economical carbon source that stimulates beneficial soil microorganisms, enhances nutrient efficiency, and promotes healthier turf and landscape performance.

Ideal for golf courses, athletic fields, sod farms, commercial landscapes, ornamental plantings, and residential turf, Terreplex can be applied as a foliar spray or injected through irrigation systems. Regular applications help improve soil structure, increase cation exchange capacity, open soil pores, and support more efficient fertilizer programs.

Key Features

• Reduces bicarbonates and unwanted salts in soil and irrigation water
• Contains more than 3 pounds of carbon per gallon to stimulate soil microbial activity
• Helps convert bound calcium and other nutrients into more plant-available forms
• Chelates micronutrients such as iron to improve nutrient uptake
• Supports improved soil structure, aeration, and flocculation
• May improve fertilizer efficiency by increasing nutrient availability
• Functions as a descalent for irrigation lines
• Fully biodegradable, non-phytotoxic, and non-corrosive when used as directed

Active Ingredients

• Plant Derived Organic Acid (derived from calcium lignosulfonate and lignosulfonic acid): 55%
