| I haven't used that lime but I have used Domino Sugar lime out of Baltimore so it might be a similar product.
Domino Lime tests: 83.35% CaCO3, 1.46% MgCO3, 47.24% CaO, 0.70 MgO with a 80.09% CaCO3 equivalent. What I like is that 99.66% passes a 100 mesh sieve so it is relatively fast acting. Comparable Hi Cal ag lime tests 90.4% CCE but only 65% passes 100 mesh.
Cost delivered approximately 90 miles is just under $9 per ton and I figure it cost me $2-3 per ton to spread myself. Ag lime spread around here is $32-34 per ton.
I push it up into a pile to shed water until I'm ready to spread. If not piled it can absorb water and become soupy. It also freezes solid so spreading is not a mid winter project. | |

Beet lime?
