[QUOTE="jack.diamond, post: 282113, member: 4708"] Hurley, We sent the soil samples to A&M for analysis. The results indicated we had lots of calcium, magnesium and other minerals in the soil, needed some nitrates though. They recommended 2000 lbs per acre. We talked to several different suppliers about the application. Some wanted to put it down mixed with water, others using fine dry lime and another a more coarser dry mixture. I'm more for the coarser mixture, but I have a hard time imagining 2000 lbs per acre. Kind of like the comment you made where the place looked like it snowed. I want the lime to be utilized by the soil, not washed off in the next gully washer. Jack [/QUOTE]
