Calcium amendment
Garden Lime Calcium, also known as Agricultural Lime, is a natural soil amendment mined from pure limestone deposits. It serves as an essential tool in modern agriculture for improving soil fertility and condition.
Key Benefits
- Neutralizes Soil Acidity: Helps to raise pH levels in acidic soils, particularly dense clay soils.
- Improves Soil Structure: Enhances the physical characteristics of the soil, promoting better drainage and aeration.
- Supports Beneficial Bacteria: Creates an environment conducive to beneficial microbial activity.
- Enhances Nutrient Availability: Balances the availability of essential nutrients while providing slowly released calcium.
Composition
- Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3): 96.00%
- Total Calcium (Ca): 38.00%
- Magnesium (Mg): 0.50%
Importance of Soil pH
Maintaining optimal soil pH is crucial for crop production. Soils with low pH (below 5.0) can lead to:
- Increased availability of toxic elements like aluminum and manganese.
- Inhibition of plant growth and reduced crop yields.
Application Rates
To effectively adjust soil pH, consider the following application rates based on soil texture:
| Soil pH | Sandy Loam | Loam | Clay |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4.0 | 100 lbs | 175 lbs | 230 lbs |
| 4.5 | 80 lbs | 150 lbs | 200 lbs |
| 5.0 | 65 lbs | 110 lbs | 150 lbs |
| 5.5 | 45 lbs | 75 lbs | 100 lbs |
| 6.0 | 20 lbs | 35 lbs | 50 lbs |
Additional application guidelines:
- For Garden Soil: Use 5-10 pounds per 100 sq. ft.
- For Potting Soil: Use 1/2 cup per cubic foot.
How to Apply Lime
- Incorporation: Whenever possible, work lime into the top 6 inches of soil to effectively reach the root zone.
- Broadcasting: For no-till gardens, lime can be broadcast over the soil surface by hand or with a spreader.
When to Apply Lime
- Lime can be applied any time of the year before planting crops but is most effective when applied in late autumn or early winter. This allows sufficient time for the lime to react with the soil before planting.
- For best results, apply lime 4–6 months prior to sowing or transplanting crops.
