Down To Earth™, Dolomite Lime, Organic Garden Mineral Fertilizer (5 LBS.)

Prilled, Fast Acting and Easy to Apply Dolomite Lime Calcium Magnesium Carbonate Is An Organic Mineral Fertilizer That Raises Soil pH.

Down To Earth’s Dolomite Lime supplies essential nutrients calcium and magnesium, and sweetens your soil (raises the pH) to improve plant growth and maximize fertilizer performance. Magnesium is the element that causes plants to be able to convert light into energy. Natural limestone is ground into an ultra-fine powder and then formed into uniform mini granules (prills) for easy spreading and rapid reaction time.

Application Rates

Most garden plants prefer a soil pH between 6.0 and 7.0. Performing a complete soil analysis or using a soil pH home test kit before application is recommended.

• 2 cups = 1 lb
• approximately 10 cups per 5 lb box

For Lawns

In spring and fall, apply 2.5-5 lbs per 100 square feet and water in well. Results may be enhanced if applied following aeration.

For Vegetable Gardens & Flower Beds

To prepare new gardens, apply 1-1.5 lbs per 100 square feet by evenly distributing over soil surface by hand or spreader. For soil pH maintenance, test and apply seasonally as needed.

For Trees & Shrubs

Spread ½-1 lb per 1” of trunk diameter around the base outwards to the drip line and water in well.
