Is it possible for nutrients that have been locked out due to incorrect pH to lay dormant in the soil, then be re-absorbed by the roots later on when the pH has stabilized?
I'm asking because I appear to have an overfertilization problem, and I stopped using nutrients a little while ago but only just started correcting the pH of my soil to 6.5. I'm thinking if all the old nutrients weren't being absorbed, they might have just been hanging out there- now that my roots can absorb nutrients, there are too much and my plants are being burned.
Is this possible? Thanks
