whats the difference between dolomitic pellitized lime and calcitic pellitized lime?
I am going to apply 80lbs to my new garden 30x30 (900sq ft)
to raise my ph closer to 7 from the now 5.8
thanks

dolomitic has magnesium calcitic has more calcium..if soil test say's magnesium is high go with calcitic lime.soil test should tell you which one to use..hope this helps
