Fast Acting Lime™

 

ENCAP's Fast Acting Lime™

Product and Technology Description

Fast Acting Lime™ was created to solve a recurring consumer problem, the need to quickly and effectively raise soil pH. Soil in many areas of the country, particularly the Northeast and Northwest is quite acidic, a condition that limits many plants and grasses from absorbing essential nutrients. Further, extreme wet weather in these areas during the winter months creates highly weathered soil conditions that accentuate the natural acidity. The more acidic the soil, the less likely grass and vegetation will flourish. The optimal pH range to ensure a healthy lawn is between 6.0 and 7.0.

Fast Acting Lime™ is a combination of high-grade finely ground calcitic lime, Advanced Soil Technology™, (AST™) and Movement Control Technology™ (MCT™), provides Fast Acting Lime™ with unmatched capability in performance. In fact, a University of Wisconsin, Madison study confirms that Fast Acting Lime™ demonstrates superior performance over typical limes...up to 4 times more effective, resulting in a large savings to consumers in labor and value.
