    Q
    Can I apply CAL FLO Liquid Limestone to my woodland garden with a 5 gallon watering can if I just dilute it thin enough?
    A

    CAL FLO Liquid Limestone should be applied with proper spraying equipment not a watering can as directed on the product label.  Watering cans will drench the product more than apply it evenly over an area when spraying.

    Q
    What's the expected increase level of pH if CAL FLO Liquid Limestone is used at the home lawn rate?
    If I used the home lawn rate with a garden spray equipment (one cup of CAL FLO Liquid Limestone per 2 gallons of water, and using one diluted spray gallon per 600 square feet), what's the expected PH increase? 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, etc?
    A

    When applying CAL FLO Liquid Limestone, normally, 2 to 3 gallons per acre can adjust pH by at least 1/2 point, and 4 to 6 gallons will adjust it 1 point.

    If I use CAL FLO Liquid Limestone on pasture, how long before the cows can graze over it?

  • Asked by Lennon from Forest, Mississippi

    Q
    Using CAL FLO Liquid Limestone for pond liming?
    I want to see if Cal Flo is safe for a fishing pond, what amount is suggested for initial treatment, and how often treatment is suggested. The pond is stocked with bass, bluegill, shell crackers, threadfin shad, and grass carp. The pond is 3 surface acres, sits in a pine plantation in central Mississippi, averages about 6 feet in depth, has a hard clay bottom, holds water well, and watershed comes from the pine plantation, no creeks entering or exiting. Thanks for your time.
    A

    Yes, CAL FLO can be used in ponds.  Per the product label instructions:  “For Fish Ponds, general application rates are 2 1/2 gallons per surface acre of water. If commercial spray equipment is used, add one gallon of CAL FLO to 30 gallons of water and project the dilution on to the water to be treated. If CAL FLO is applied from a boat, slowly pour CAL FLO from a moving boat, letting the motor serve as a mixer. NOTE: For best results, water analysis is recommended to accurately determine application rate.”
