Directions for use, basic soil info, chloride, sweetening the soil, and liquid vs granular — answered.
Application varies by your soil and crop, and you may not need as much as you think. Because Super Lime Plus is a concentrated Ag lime with no chloride, you won't need 2 or 3 gallons per acre like chloride liquids. The best first step is to send us your soil analysis so we can recommend the exact rate for your pasture, hay, or row crops. Call 1-800-989-7361 or email [email protected] to discuss the proper application.
To maximize crop performance you must either improve the soil or maintain an already-healthy soil with good bacteria and a strong humus layer. A balanced pH lets nutrients reach the plant, suppresses weeds, and helps the soil hold moisture. In a single season, Super Lime Plus can bring a struggling soil pH up by a full point, then help maintain the balance long term without overcompensation.
No. Super Lime Plus is made from actual granular Ag lime (calcium carbonate), highly concentrated and fortified with calcium nitrate — there is no chloride in the formula. Many liquid "limes" are calcium chloride; chloride is a salt that negatively affects soil pH and pulls moisture away from the root. Our products are clean, non-corrosive, have no gritty particles, and won't burn.
"Sweetening" the soil means raising the pH out of the acidic range so plants can use nutrients efficiently. Super Lime Plus delivers immediate pH balance and long-lasting results. Our blends also stimulate bio-activity to build humus, which keeps pH balanced naturally and holds nutrients in place — so you get more use from less fertilizer.
Super Lime Plus is a powerful liquid concentrate of Ag lime that's more cost effective than granular or calcium chloride liquids, with no gritty particles. It's fortified to provide more soil benefit than granular lime alone, and it can be sprayed together with our Super-K29 liquid potash — applying lime and potash at the same time. Growers consistently report that their fields look better than they ever did with granular, with fewer weeds.
