Quali Grow® Dolomitic Lime

Quali Grow® Dolomitic Lime

Jardineries Botanix SKU:71939900

Format

  • Neutralizes soil acidity
  • High magnesium content
  • Optimizes nutrient uptake
  • Fast-dissolving granulation
  • Enhances root structure

Quali Grow® Dolomitic Lime is a natural mineral amendment essential for restoring the physicochemical balance of regional soils. By directly managing pH levels, it transforms overly acidic environments into fertile substrates conducive to beneficial microbial activity. This product is characterized by its high magnesium carbonate content, a vital element for photosynthesis.

Application is recommended during spring vegetable garden preparation or in the fall on lawn surfaces to discourage moss proliferation and promote a healthy, crumbly soil structure.

Why Choose This Product?

  • pH Balancing: Reduces acidity to unlock essential nutrients previously bound in the soil.
  • Increased Vigour: Magnesium promotes chlorophyll synthesis, resulting in greener and more robust foliage.
  • Soil Structure: Improves soil porosity, facilitating better drainage and root zone oxygenation.
  • Mineral Quality: A natural source of calcium, indispensable for cell division in vegetables and ornamental plants.

Directions for Use

  1. Soil Testing: It is recommended to test your soil's pH before application to determine the exact dosage required.
  2. General Dosage: For regular maintenance, spread approximately 2 kg per 10 m². For major pH correction, increase the dosage according to soil test results.
  3. Application: Distribute uniformly using a spreader on a dry surface.
  4. Incorporation: For best results in vegetable gardens, lightly till the lime into the top 10 to 15 cm of soil. For lawns, leave on the surface.
  5. Watering: Water thoroughly after application to initiate granule dissolution and integration into the soil complex.

Note: Avoid application near acid-loving plants (e.g., azaleas, blueberries).

Understanding the Amendment

Unlike traditional NPK fertilizers, lime acts as a catalyst:

  • Calcium (Ca): Strengthens cell walls and overall plant resistance to environmental stress.
  • Magnesium (Mg): The central element of chlorophyll, ensuring optimal photosynthesis.
  • The Role of pH: A balanced soil allows roots to fully access the nutrient reserves (Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium) already present in the soil or growing medium.
