A liming material to neutralize soil
acidity while adding calcium and magnesium
mini particle size. |

Fineness
rating: 5.0% of granules are retained
on 2 mm mesh with zero effectiveness. 5.0%
of granules passed 2 mm mesh but retained
on 0.15 mm with effectiveness of 0.6. 90.0%
of granules passed 0.15 mm mesh with effectiveness
of 1.0.
• Water and soil microbial activity
breakdown the lime granules to rapidly neutralize
the soil pH.
• Contains calcium and magnesium to
balance the exchange capacity of the soil
which allows a better nutrient absorption
through turf roots.
• At soil water pH of 5.0, the relative
nutrient efficiency is approx. 50% for nitrogen,
33% for phosphorus, and 50% for potassium.
When soil water pH reaches 6.0, the relative
efficiency becomes 90% for nitrogen, 50%
for phosphorus, and 100% for potasium. Neutralizing
soil water pH to 6.5 will help each of N,
P, and K reach an efficiency of 100%.
• Reduces thatch accumulation in a
short period of time, provided that the
soil is not compacted.
• Improves soil structure to favour
root growth, and water percolation.
• Stimulates the soil microbial activity.
• Reduces the toxicity of aluminium,
iron, manganese, and copper in acid soils.
• Decreases potassium losses through
leaching.
• Improves the efficiency of certain
herbicides.
• Can be broadcast with any type of
spreaders.
• Lime granules start to breakdown
after the first rainfall or irrigation.
Bag kg (lb): 20 (40).
Product application rate :
According to the buffer pH of the soil.
Follow the recommended rates in the soil
test report, particularly in the case of
creeping bentgrass to avoid take-all patch
disease caused by overliming.
