How much Hi - Yield Fast Acting Lime do I need?

My lawn pH is 5.3, how much Hi - Yield Fast Acting Lime do I need to apply to get the pH to about 6.8

Answer:

The amount and number of applications of Pennington Fast Acting Lime you need to put down is determined by what your soils starting pH would be to compare to the scale on the product label. One 6 pound bag of Pennington Fast Acting Lime will cover approximately 1,000 square feet on lawns for pH that is 6.0 and above. One 30 pound bag will cover approximately 5,000 square feet. Per the product label: You will add an additional 6lbs/1,000 sqft on the application rate for each 1/2 point of pH below 6 (i.e., use 12lbs for pH 5.5-6.0, 18lbs for pH 5.0 - 5.5, etc.).  You should test your soil to determine the current after each each application to be sure.
