[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1175025, member: 18945"] I find it interesting that so many states have so many different standards for liming products. Most lime(stone) products around here also have a ? % of magnesium in them, because they are a dolomite product. Yes, Innyati is correct--it all depends on the lime type and where it came from and it real values against set standards. And different states have different standards.** Size matters as well--how much any given volume passes thru different screen or sieve mesh sizes. I have a retail sack of it here to put in my vegetable garden and it has the different ratings that states use. (These ratings or info is for this particular product and what it is advertised to provide according to different states' standards) This particular product came from Kansas. ** Just as an example, here's the explanation of Mississippi's grading and "purity". You can see where the "grade B" comes from. [url=http://msucares.com/crops/soils/acidity.html]http://msucares.com/crops/soils/acidity.html[/url] [/QUOTE]
