Why Lime Greens Grade

Fix acidic soil so feeding actually works

When soil pH drops below about 5.5, nutrients get locked up and the lawn struggles no matter how much you feed it. Lime raises the pH and remineralises tired soil, so everything you put down after works harder.

  • Raises soil pH on acidic, tired soils
  • Calcium 34%+ to remineralise worn ground
  • Frees up locked nutrients so feeds work harder
  • Greens grade 1-2mm prill, fine enough for low-cut turf
How to use

Sweeten the soil in three steps

1
Test

A soil pH test is the best way to confirm the lawn is acidic and actually needs lime.

2
Spread

Spread evenly with a spreader at the label rate across the lawn.

3
Water in

Give it a good water so it starts working down into the soil profile.

A soil pH test confirms whether the lawn is acidic before you apply. For heavy clay or compacted soil that does not need a pH change, see Gypsum Greens Grade.

How it compares

Lime and gypsum do different jobs. Lime is for acidic soil, gypsum is for heavy clay. Here is how Lime stacks up against gypsum and against leaving the soil as it is.

Questions

Good to know

How do I know if my lawn needs lime?+
A soil pH test is the best way to be sure. If the pH is below about 5.5 your soil is acidic, nutrients get locked up, and the lawn struggles no matter how much you feed it. That is when lime helps. If your problem is hard, compacted clay rather than acidity, gypsum is the one you want instead.
How much do I use?+
Spread at the rate on the label. The amount depends on how acidic your soil is and how big the lawn is, so check your pH test and the bag before you start, then spread evenly with a spreader.
How often should I apply it?+
Autumn or spring is the time to apply. Lime is a soil correction, not a regular feed, so you only need it when a pH test shows the soil has gone acidic again. Many lawns are fine with a top-up every year or two.
Is it safe around pets and kids?+
Once it is spread and watered in, the lawn is fine for pets and kids to use again. As with any garden product, keep them off while you are spreading, water it in, and store the bag away.
How long until I see a result?+
Lime works on the soil rather than the leaf, so it is not an overnight green-up. It takes a few weeks to shift the pH, and the real payoff is that the feeds you put down afterwards start working properly again.

Get the soil right first

If your soil has gone acidic, lime fixes the foundation so every feed after it works harder. Test, spread, water in.
