calcium, and sodium in your soil. Only a professional
soil test can determine the soil’s mineral balance. If
possible, you should have this information before you
apply pH modi3ers to your soil. For instance, limestone
is a common pH modi3er. However, all limestone does
not have the same mineral composition. An application
of dolomitic instead of calcitic lime to a soil with high
magnesium content could disrupt your soil balance and
adversely affect plant growth.
