Default A Bit Of Clarification Requested Re Using Lime For Lawn Grass Problem, Please. And, Re Lime Usage

"Bob" wrote in message
...
Hello,

Thanks for all the replies re using lime to help my moss problem on my
grass.

One thing wasn't too clear though.

Will applying the lime, work mainly to help prevent new moss from forming
due to the now changed ph,

Or, will it (also) help kill what's there now ?

BTW: does everyone feel that the garden store lime granules are perfectly
safe to use irrespective of ph results ? Any caveats ?

Thanks,
Bob


You could spped things up by raking up the moss and seeding with grass seed
after you have corrected to ph.
