My results say lime 3.7 with potential sealing. What does that mean? It's always said 0 in the past. Am I doing or adding something that is causing this? Thank you!

Kevin, mine says 3.6 and nearing ceiling.I believe theyre referring to a ceiling because of high calcium.Limeing will raise ca++ in already high ca++ conditions.

So I should avoid adding any more calcium?

I would go with your gut and dont treat that soil test as gospel as there are a lot of variables where errors could happen??? What is your PH?

Kevin,obviously don't add lime if your already at 7.2. if you need calcium then gypsum is the way to go

Thanks for all the input! My calcium is at 4086 ppm. So I should be ok to grow? Just don't add more calcium? Thanks!
