[QUOTE="ollie989898, post: 7105470, member: 54866"] I would be loathe to apply more than 2 tonne or so in a single hit, I don't know your dirt but big doses in one go would be a bit unkind to soil chemistry in my wire. If you have historically applied 3 tonne in one go and had no issue then fine but apply the second extra hit later after working it in. The risk would be in magically creating a serious trace element issue for your next crop as the top 'growing layer' would have a highly different pH in a localised layer. You know your land better than anyone though. If it's acid as fudge, it's acid as fudge. [/QUOTE]
