[QUOTE="doorknob, post: 1418988, member: 1240"] Dont think so on the lime strips. We put down 100 pounds per acre and it is granular so it meters fine with a seed meter, though we use an air cart. But we do use a lot of lime. Our soils tend to leach calcium and magnesium pretty easily. We broadcast whatever rate needed to get the field to mid to high 6s and then do what we call maintenance apps with the drill. We'll see over time how well we can keep the calcium and ph levels up with only planting application. Our soil tests have shown in our no=till/dd fields that the top 2" become most acid quickly with the residue and rain fall here. So lime with the seed sounded like a good idea and we have stuck with it so far. [/QUOTE]
