Does the nitrogen fixing bacteria convert nitrogen gas into nitrates immediately or does it convert it to ammonium first and then the nitrifying bacteria convert it to usable nitrates?????
The nitrogen fixing bacteria converts nitrogen gas (from the atmosphere) into ammonia(known as the process nitrogen fixation),then the NITRIFYING bacteria converts the ammonia into nitrites which is then converted into nitrates (known as the process nitrificafion)
