Maybe that stuff alone is enough, but I've heard of people using pelleted acidifiers several times a year. I just happened to use it to mix into my beds which I doubt will drop the PH by as much as 2-3 units, but I never tested it afterwards so I have no idea. I've never had PH related issues or changes in the color of the leaves so maybe the PH of my beds have been dropped with these natural materials.
