Nitrogen Mineralization: A Microbial Mediated Process

[@PBRaft]

This lecture has really helped improve my comprehension of how soil microbes work. Would it be safe to say, that a decomposition layer rich in nitrogen at the surface of a garden bed, say one loaded with green mulch like grass clippings, would have higher levels of Nitrite, and thus should be avoided during the mid-late flowering period where Nitrogen isn’t as necessary for development?

thanks mam

Why do you call NH4+ ammonia when it is ammonium? Or there is no difference between the two? Thanks.

I don't know what difference is to microbes. mineralization can result in both forms of nitrogen. but ammonia is not immobilized by the crops.

I thought N2 made up 78% of our atmosphere not 70. My life is a lie
