Horticultural Hydrated Lime

Compare the listed 2 lb and 50 lb horticultural hydrated lime products for soil-acidity management where the current product label and your soil-test recommendation support their use. Choose the package that fits your application needs, and confirm the exact product details before ordering.

Hydrated lime is a separate material

Do not treat hydrated lime as interchangeable with ground calcium carbonate or dolomite lime. Use the directions for the specific product rather than transferring an application rate from another liming material. For other options, compare calcium carbonate and calcitic limestone or dolomite lime.

Choose the package and verify the label

The Hi-Yield listing offers a 2 lb package, while the larger listing is 50 lb. Review the individual product’s label, intended use, and safety data before purchase. Package size alone does not establish equivalent grade or suitability for a particular application.

Plan use from test results

Base amendment selection and rate on a current soil or growing-media test and the applicable product directions. Follow label precautions for handling, protective equipment, application, and storage. Do not use a general collection description as a dosing instruction or assume suitability for hydroponic nutrient solutions.
