Hello everyone,

I wanted to showcase the pros and cons of using the DiPaolo Brother's (The past owners of Belleclare Nursery) method of adding granulated limestone as a mulch.

Let me know if you enjoyed the video! Thanks.

Great tip, time and energy saver.

Thanks for sharing your experience using lime.

Rather than mulching what do you think of working the lime into the top 1" of soil? 
That should not create a top hardpan layer.  Although it may still affect the porosity of the soil mix. 

After further review it seems I am using Pelletized Lime and not the Granulated Lime that Belleclare Nursery recommends. Home Depot has deceived me. This is what I've been using: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Soil-Doctor-40-lb-Granular-Limestone-54055026/100343171?keyword=granular+limestone

It says "Granulated," but it's not the real deal.

I may try again next year, but for now I'll just be adding that stuff to my mix.
