        A:  Thank you for your question. By design we do not handle any material deemed hazardous or toxic by the US EPA. While our products can be used in areas where children and pets play, one must always be alert for possible allergic reactions. In that case, wash off any material from the person or animal and remove them from the proximity. Consult a doctor or veterinarian if needed.

          Q:Can I use this in a compost bin to help break down materials?

          1 Answer
          Answer This Question

          A:  Thank you for your question. Lime is sometimes used in the compost pile as the decomposition process can turn acidic which can slow down the process. Lime can help alleviate that acidity.

              Q:Is this Garden Lime good for grapefruit ? Thank
              by|Dec 30, 2023
              1 Answer
              Answer This Question

              A:  Thank you for your question. Grapefruit grow best in slightly acidic soils (pH 6.0 to 7.0) – thus Garden Lime might not be best for them. You can do a simple home pH test to discover the soil pH to be sure. Feed the Grapefruit with Espoma Organic Citrus-tone.
