pelletized lime vs powdered lime
    #14759762 - 07/12/11 10:16 PM (13 years, 6 months ago)

I'm using lime to balance the pH of my substrate so i went to the tractor supply company and got a bag but then i noticed it was the pelletized version. i want to make sure that this was ok instead of powdered lime. if anyone has knowledge along this line would you mind helping me out.

I would skip it if you cant get powder. From what I've read here it takes too long for peletized to break down to have any benefit.

both are good ,it is possible that the powdered lime will spread better on your substrate instead of spots of lime
