That's ground up dolomitic with magnesium. I'm sure you can find hydrated horticultural lime at a nursery or feed store. I just bought 50 lbs at our local feed store for $6, and it's less than 1% Mg.

I think you're confusing calcium carbonate with calcium sulphate(gypsum). The hydrated lime I get is derived from powdered limestone which is calcium carbonate. Gypsum has calcium and sulphur, so it's a buffer. Mg has a negative effect on fruiting performance. You want to avoid lime from dolomitic.

Correct. Hydrated lime is calcium hydroxide. Here's the label from the 50lb bag of lime I picked up for $6. Use a bit less than you would if not using water soluable(powdered/flour) limestone.
