Beth Rado's question



<< 
 Somebody, please, share with me any facts, tricks, rumors, or 
 harebrained ideas - tried and true or otherwise - to help change the 
 pH as quickly as possible. 

 Should I plant one of the **HOTS**, or 
 hold it for next year??

Beth:  The best defense at this point is to arrange for a load (dump truck 
size) of sifted topsoil to be brought in. It will cost about $350, but is 
money well spent to instantly correct your problem. Time is not on your side 
here.

The lime you put down will work over a period of several months, but in the 
meantime, you can plant with confidence with new topsoil. Kill two birds with 
one stone. (No one said the answer would be this painful!)

Holding HOT seeds is probably not necessary; in a few short months, there 
will be a new batch of HOT seeds and the ones you hold may become less 
valuable.
