Product Details

Enhanced Calcitic Limestone – Premium Calcium Source with 45-Day Surfactant for Balanced Soil, Moisture, and Turf Health

Enhanced Calcitic Limestone delivers highly available calcium to improve soil chemistry, nutrient efficiency, and turf performance—now with a built-in 45-day surfactant for improved moisture management and water infiltration. This dual-action formulation increases calcium availability in the soil and plant, enhances nutrient uptake, and maintains uniform soil hydration for consistent turf quality.

Ideal for lawn care, sports turf, and large turf areas, Enhanced Calcitic Limestone helps raise or maintain soil pH, reduce hydrogen (H), sodium (Na), and chlorine (Cl) levels, and improve root growth, germination, and microbial activity. The integrated surfactant technology promotes uniform water movement through the soil profile, ensuring balanced calcium delivery and improved nutrient distribution.

By improving soil structure, flocculation, and water infiltration, this product supports stronger, more resilient turfgrass with enhanced color, density, and disease resistance. With its Coarse Grade (SGN 220) particle size, Enhanced Calcitic Limestone provides maximum coverage and faster results at lower application rates, offering turf professionals a cost-efficient, high-performance solution for both soil conditioning and moisture balance.

Application Rates

To maintain optimum pH and improve soil moisture retention, apply Verde-Lawn Hydro at 5 pounds per 1,000 ft2 or 220 pounds per acre (250 kg per hectare) at least twice per growing season, or as needed. Soil test recommendations should be used to determine liming needs.

To adjust pH, apply Verde-Lawn Hydro at 10 pounds per 1,000 ft2 or 435 pounds per acre (500 kg per hectare), or as needed. In most soils this will raise the soil pH up to one full point. Retest and reapply, if needed, at this rate.
