I just wish I could get it spread on my place. They won’t come for two tons and don’t think my 30hp tractor could pull the buggy.
Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

You can get the pelletized lime in a bag just like fertilizer it just takes a little longer for it to start working a lot of people have to go this route. I’ve done it before and had good luck with it

Stoney- I'd guess we are within a mile of you, and the last time we had lime spread, the Co-Op said never again. 6 or 8 small fields, scattered around 5-600 acres, with a fairly poor road system. We'll probably just scatter pelletized with the tractor going forward. Honestly, while the cost/lb is far steeper, in the quantities we use, every 3-4 years, it's easier to just do it ourselves. I do know our soil needs it regularly.
Used to be a lifeguard, until that blue kid got me fired.

I do know our soil needs it regularly. I guess they won't drop off a buggy and only will deliver in a spreader truck? In the past we have had a buggy full delivered from the co-op and then we get another 6-8 tons in bulk tote bags and put them on a gooseneck. Then we transfer the totes to pickups and refill the buggy in each plot. The biggest pain is unhooking the tractor each time to load.

Paper mill lime mud is used a bunch in the ag fields in Escambia County due to the availability from the GP mill in Brewton. You can see huge white piles in the edge of the fields where it has been delivered. There are quite a few guys who make good money this time of year hauling lime from GP. We had 30 tons delivered to the hunting club for $210. It’s hard as hell to spread as it starts getting damp pretty quick after delivery but it’s a fraction of the cost of pelletized lime. I finally found a 3 pt PTO spreader that WILL spread it whether it’s wet or dry. I bought a Sides Spread All spreader and when he says it will spread anything, he ain’t lying. I paid a premium price for the spreader but like most of you, I could not find anybody that would spread lime with a truck on our hunting club. Roads are too rough and the risk of getting the truck stuck all but eliminated that option. And pulling a spreader buggy down uneven washed out roads is a chance I’m not willing to take.

That Sides new or used ? How many Benjamin's did it kill ? I bought it brand spanking new and it was $7K by the time I got it to Florida. I figure that I can make my money back by spreading lime on nearby clubs that have the same problem I had of not having any other option. It is a really unique design as you can put fertilizer and seed in it with the PTO going and it will mix it all together with the auger that’s in it. It also has a Reese type hitch on the back to pull a drag or cultipacker so you can plant/fertilize/cover in one pass with only one tractor. I got the biggest one they make so if you aren’t after a 2500 lb capacity, they are a lot cheaper.
