Lime is used change the ph level of soil. Approximately 50 lbs of lime

I did a home test on my lawn and found it to be too alkaline. Does
fertilizer raise or lower the ph level of the lawn? I plan to add
fertilizer and want to know if I should also use sulfur or something to
treat the alkaline or if the fertilizer will help balance the ph
itself.

Thanks.


You -do not- lime an alkaline soil.
