Before applying any lime or calcium product, grab a pH meter and test your soil. It only takes a few minutes and takes the guesswork out of the process. If your reading comes in below 6.5, it's time to add calcium.
Most lawns in the Northeast will show readings between 5.5 and 6.5 — definitely in the range where lime can make a noticeable difference. If your pH reads above 7.0, that's less common in our region; feel free to reach out and we'll help you figure out the right approach.
