Why the Pros Love It

DG Technology

Made with the Andersons patented DG (dispersible granule) Technology, NutraLime OP Hi-Mag Lime is more effective and faster acting than traditional pulverized lime products. DG Technology allows each NutraLime granule to quickly and completely disperse after coming into contact with water from rain or irrigation, allowing the product to reach its intended destination – the root zone.

How to Apply NutraLime

Applying NutraLime

All successful lawns and gardens need proper soil pH control as an important part of their maintenance program. For a beautiful and healthy lawn and garden, apply NutraLime OP Hi-Mag Lime any time during the growing season. This product will not cause any burning and is safe for use around kids and pets. To determine the NutraLime Op Hi-Mag Lime requirements for your lawn or garden, a simple soil test is suggested. In the absence of a test, the following recommendations should be followed.

NutraLime for Lawns

  • New Lawns: 40 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. – rake lightly into the soil before seeding
  • Established lawns: 12 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. – for clay soils, increase to 18 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft.
  • Maintenance: Repeat 1-2 times per year, or whenever soil pH drops below 6.3, at a rate of 4-6 lbs. of NutraLime OP Hi-Mag Lime per 1,000 sq. ft.

NutraLime for Gardens

  • Gardens have a deeper root zone than lawns and require a higher rate. For best results, double lawn recommendations and mix to a depth of 6 inches.

The rule of thumb for raising your pH level by 1 is 40 lbs. of lime per 1,000 sq. ft., however, this can vary on the condition of your soil and you should never apply more than 50 lbs. of lime per 1,000 sq. ft. at a time. Instead wait one growing season, retest soil and reapply again if needed.
