I'm slowly clearing out areas of my land. It was logged years ago, and now is covered in tiny pines. Sent some soil samples in last year. All indicate that I need around 100lbs of lime per 1000 sq ft. I have a pto spreader. Been trying to find bulk pelletized lime because I'm told ag lime will cake up in a spreader like mine. I haven't been very successful in my search, so I'm not sure what to do. I have a little JD drop spreader that I tow behind the lawn tractor, but I'm pretty sure it would take me forever to go that rout, and it certainly isn't going to work on the back side of the land. Any forages that will grow in acidic soil? I can probably use the little spreader for the yard area, just to get a lawn growing. Other options would be filling the loader bucket with ag lime and throwing it around with a shovel, but that's going to take a long time.
