[QUOTE="Gibbybox, post: 7534762, member: 58658"] Thanks for the feedback folks. I’m half tempted to put a reduced rate of calcium lime on (1.5t/ac) which would bring the options closer in cost and perhaps be a better compromise. The advice I’ve been given is the fundamental problem I have is very low pH and it would therefore be better to get 2t of mag on rather than 1.5 of calcium on to make the biggest difference to the pH. However, I don’t want to suffer elsewhere as a result. It’s really not my area of expertise but I’ve a contractor (and good friend) telling me mag lime on one hand and the old man adamant on calcium lime on the other, so no obvious answer. [/QUOTE]
