liquid lime

[Mike(NEOhio)]

Anybody have experience with Agir Tec. It's a concentrate delivered in barrels and diluted to be applied by sprayer.

Never heard anything positive about it. Way more work for far less results vs regular ag lime is all I’ve heard about it.

Figure out the cost per ton of calcium carbonate equivalent and you’ll have what you need to know.

Haven't used it, but neighbour's have. Up here in the shield you can never get enough lime due to the crazily acidic soil and aluminium toxicity.

What I've heard: Much more expensive than conventional lime, the effects wear off/wash out sooner, but it gets immediate results (unlike conventional lime which takes several months to break down and start working).

One of my land owners once asked me to lime his large lawn for him two years after he had liquid lime sprayed on.

Kinda like potato growers back home did with a low rate of hydrated lime to quickly raise the pH when they rotated to cauliflower for a year and then it dropped back down to what was normal for potatoes.
