What are the differences between pelleted, granulated and powdered lime?

To make lime easier to spread and quicker to dissolve, lime can be ground very fine and then made into pellets. Granular lime usually flows through a spreader fairly well, but is much slower to dissolve. Powdered lime is quick to dissolve, but can be very difficult to spread. Is gypsum different from lime? Gypsum is calcium sulphate and can be applied to alkaline soils to move the pH toward neutral. It is sometimes recommended for clay soils. Is there a best way to apply these products? Is there a best time? To determine how much to use and how best to apply it, check the instructions on the package. If you have your soil tested by a soil laboratory, it may provide you with specific recommendations. Can I bring my soil test results in and get some help? We’d be glad to help you. If our horticulturist isn’t available when you stop by, just leave the information and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
