I have cleared about 1/3-1/2 acre for a garden. It has set fallow for 25 years and turned into a small forest. I am now interested in putting about 750 lbs of lime on it because most natural soils in my area are about 5.5 pH. I am trying to decide the best way to do this. The most expensive way is to buy bulk lime for $36/ton and rent a buggy for $50. The next way is to buy pelletized lime for $65 and spread it with my 3 point fertilizer spreader. The final way I have found is to buy powdered lime in bags for $40 and spread it myself as well. I am not sure that powdered lime will work well in a fertilizer spreader, but then again I am not doing very much. Do y'all have any advice?
