Ratio of Carbon to Nitrogen
Well you shared a good ratio information here.
bedrik Reviewed by bedrik on . Ratio of Carbon to Nitrogen The carbon to nitrogen ratio is called the C:N ratio The carbon serves as an envirnmental energy source for most microorganisms. They use the carbon to build cells and the N in protien production. C:N less than 20:1 = high nitrogen content (should not result in immobilization of soil N) With a high nitrogen content the micro organisms will take N for them selves and convert the remaining organic N into ammonium nitrate (NH4+) in a process called mineralization Mineralization: Rating: 5
