"Soil Sweetness"-- ground Limestone--Agronomists speak of the range of acidity according to a scale -of 0 to 14, The soil is acid or "sour" below 7 and alkaline or "sweet" above 7. As a general rule, it is not a wise to apply lime unless the soil test shows below 6…However, if you prefer not to bother with a test and you know your land has not been limed for several years --or ever--put on 50 pounds per 1000 square feet…
What this will do:
1.) Correct the acidity
2.) Supply calcium and magnesium.
3.) Speed the decay of organics..
4.) Liberate plant food
5.) Increase fixation of nitrogen.
6.) Improve soil texture
