nouvellechef said:I agree. Mine is 8.2 tap. Think my recipe calculates to be 1.5tb per gal for lime.
Hey NC- You still adding epsom to your mix for additional mag? Do you add an additional cal source?
Rose- At 6.8 your water is pretty neutral and won't react with your lime but it should cause reactions with the peat in your soil which would then react with the lime. You might consider alternate sources for calcium and magnesium though and not rely as much on the lime. Bone meal is a good source of calcium and epsom salts should help with magnesium.
