Dolomite - Organic Calcium & Magnesium to your soil & to livestock feed 5 Pounds

NOTE: Depending on your shipping address, we may ship 50 pound items as two 25 pound bags.

For treating soil that's too acidic (commonly knows as "sweetening" the soil), it's tough to beat the power and efficiency of the Dolomite Lime powder supplied by Greenway Biotech.

Since Dolomite Lime is particularly slow-acting by adding it to the soil well before you plant, you'll foster a healthy environment for vegetation.

It's made of 22.7 percent calcium and 11.8 percent magnesium, both of which many organisms require.

Besides allowing you to adjust pH level of your soil, Dolomite Lime also has below applications:

• • As a component in a nutritious fertilizer mix.

• • In speeding up the composting process by encouraging decomposition.

• • For enriching animal feed.

• • In magnesium-deficient terrain.

Apple, citrus, and pear trees are just some of the trees that really enjoy the addition of Dolomite Lime to their nutrition.
