If it was cost effective for us, I'd use it at least 2 out of 3 times that I lime. If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

I won't know what it did until I get a soil test in a yr or so, but our fields look good. We have kept our ph up as needed before we started using it (good enough for food plots anyhow) but it is much cheaper than lime if you've got a way to spread it. I got a number for anyone that needs it close to Jefferson county. You can pm me if you want it. Originally Posted by BPS This is Aldeer!
