Calcium Carbonate (Garden Lime, Lime,)

Calcium Carbonate, commonly known as Garden Lime or simply Lime, is a natural soil amendment used to raise soil pH and reduce acidity, creating a more favorable environment for plant growth. It is especially beneficial for vegetables, lawns, and fruit trees that prefer neutral to slightly alkaline soil conditions.

This fine, white powder or granular material supplies essential calcium, which supports strong cell walls, root development, and overall plant vigor. By neutralizing acidic soils, calcium carbonate improves nutrient availability and enhances microbial activity, promoting healthier and more productive gardens.

Benefits:

• Raises soil pH to reduce acidity
• Improves nutrient uptake and soil structure
• Supplies calcium for plant health
• Enhances microbial activity and root development

Usage: Apply based on soil test recommendations, typically 5–10 lbs per 100 sq ft for moderately acidic soils. Mix thoroughly into the topsoil and water well after application.
