Default Lime-garden,ground or hydrated?

I am aware that one should not put lime onto a plot at the same time
as manure,but what is a reasonable interval-3 weeks,3 months?
Also,what is the most cost effective type of lime to use.I am aware
that hydrated lime is expensive,and lowers the pH more,but is it worth
twice the price? At our allotment trading hut,25 kg of hydrated lime
is £7.10,whereas garden lime or ground lime is £3.90.
Cheers,Michael
