"Lime your land
while the ground is frozen \"
Winter is the best time to apply limestone, A fellow from Burkholder’s
Limestone in Ephrata put it this way:
“When your land is frozen hard, more consistent spreading is possible.
And when the land begins to thaw, the depth and rate of penetration is
such that the lime is better assimilated or mixed with the soil.
With spring plowing, the lime will have had a more complete effect on
correcting soils acid condition.”
He made real good sense to me. I know enough about farming to lime
my land for greater yields. The people at Burkholder know their farming
too. We get along fine together. They won’t boast about their products
unless you ask ’em.
I’ll bet we’d all learn more if we did ask
