Down To Earth Dolomite Lime

Dolomite Lime is primarily used to raise the pH level of acidic soil, often referred to as 'sweetening' the soil. By balancing the pH, it creates a more hospitable environment for plants to thrive and improves their ability to absorb nutrients from other fertilizers.

Calcium is essential for strong cell wall development, while magnesium is a key component of chlorophyll. Magnesium specifically helps your plants efficiently convert light energy into fuel, which is vital for healthy growth and photosynthesis.

While the lime is ground into an ultra-fine powder for quick reaction time, it is formed into mini granules to make application much easier. This format reduces dust during spreading and ensures a more uniform distribution across your garden beds.

This product is specifically designed for soil that is too acidic and needs a pH boost. It is best to test your soil's pH level before application to ensure your plants actually require an increase in alkalinity.

Because the limestone is processed into an ultra-fine powder before being granulated, it breaks down relatively quickly once applied. However, soil pH adjustment is a gradual process, so you should allow some time for the nutrients to integrate before expecting significant changes.
