[QUOTE="rdbigfarmboy, post: 499663, member: 6318"] Southern Middle Tennessee 26 per ton spread The problem is my lime sample is not water soluble. It has been sitting for 3 weeks and hasnt changed (raised the pH) of the water. Im not sure how fast this is going to work, should have done something maby up to 8 or at least 7 . It seems to be too coarse, maby I just got a bad sample. I dont think the lime met the standard for particle size or sieves. Should get some limited reaction within a couple months of the line is correctly sized and the neutralizing value will remain for 2 ot 4 years or so. I have doubts about this lime and it cost 52 per acre and probably will not have noticeable results. UT test results call for 2 ton for any pH below 6. Historically if it were say 5.4 they would call for 4 tons. [/QUOTE]
