Calcitic Lime
A single 50 pound bag of calcitic limestone was added to the structure area which is about 1280 sq. ft. to help keep my pH stable and not become acidic as the peat moss will typically reduce soil pH levels.
Allyndale Limestone is a local company based in East Canaan, CT. However, their CT mine location is dolomitic limestone and the calcitic actually comes from just to the north in Massachusetts. This is a great lime source and is the powdered form which has a high surface area to volume ration for improved soil contact. The only downfall is making the application. Wind will easily cause drift and it is difficult to run through a spreader so be cautious.
