Triple super phosphate is generally more effective, as it has higher phosphorous (P) levels. However if you need to raise the level of sulphur (S) in your soil you may be better off with normal super, as it has higher S levels. Also, keep in mind that triple super is usually more expensive.

How do you use triple phosphate?

The best way to use triple phosphate or super phosphate is to build it into your soil. You can do this by mixing your soil in a mixing box or right on the ground. Start with 1/2 cup of phosphate per cubic foot of soil. You can also amend the top few inches of your flower or vegetable garden with it. It will create enormous flowers and fruits.


Manufacturing process of single super phosphate?

Single superphosphate is made by reacting phosphate rock with sulfuric acid to produce phosphoric acid. This phosphoric acid is then mixed with phosphate fertilizer to produce single superphosphate. The mixture is granulated and dried before being ready for use as a fertilizer.


What is the color of single super phosphate?

Fresh super is quite a dark grey colour. However by the time it's ready for farm use it should be an almost white colour.


Is super phosphate a nitrogenous fertilizer?

No. It doesn't contain any nitrogen. It contains 8.8% phosphorus (P) and 11 % sulfur (S) as sulfate.


Where the single super phosphate use?

single super phosphate or superphosphate of lime, Ca(H 2 PO 4 ) 2 , is a compound produced by treating rock phosphate with sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid, or a mixture of the two. It is the principal carrier of phosphate, the form of phosphorus usable by plants, and is one of the world's most important fertilizers. Ordinary superphosphate contains about 20% available phosphate; double superphosphate (also called treble superphosphate) contains 40%-50% available phosphate.

How are super phosphates prepared?

Super phosphate is calcium dihydrogen phosphate. It can be prepared by reacting sulfuric acid with calcium phosphate :Calcium phosphate + Sulfuric acid ----> Calcium sulfate + Calcium dihydrogen phosphate3 Ca3(PO4)2 + 6 H2SO4 ----> 6 CaSO4 + 3 Ca(H2PO4)2

What is the chemical equation for the preparation of super phosphate?

Rock phosphate is made to react with concentrated sulphuric acid which produces a mixture of calcium sulphate and calcium-di-hydrogen phosphate. This is super phosphate.Equation Ca3(PO4)2+2H2SO4 => 2CaSO4+Ca(H2PO4)2
