[QUOTE="Limepro, post: 882130, member: 17660"] Actually there is research available at the national fertilizer foundation that clearly shows smaller aglime particles react much faster than larger ones. Basically particles in the 40-60 mesh range react in the 18 - 30 months. This size is very common in aglime produced in aggregate quarries who have crushers designed to make base for roads and larger rock sizes. Aglime passing a 100 mesh screen will react in approximately 3 months. There is a publication " Aglime Facts" that has this chart available in it. I would urge anyone buying aglime to ask their supplier for its RNV (relative neutralizing value), the higher the number the more bang for your buck and the faster it will act! [/QUOTE]
