always test the pH of water before you water, us pH down to get your water ph at 6.5-7. then water.
if you cant get ph down, vinegar works aswell.

Sulfur? aluminum sulfate? what do you mean
Add either one to lower soil ph.
Be careful Search the web for how to use this material.

Add anything thats acidic. Vinegar works great, or concentrated lime juice in the small neon green plastic bottles from the grocery store used for making mixed drinks:] fresh lemons.. fresh limes.. etc.

you didnt mention if you added any nutes as that will usually raise your ph. in any case adjust your water lower than 6.5 until your soil runoff is arpund 6.5-6.8. what kind of soil are you using? rich soil can accomplish both of your issues.
