Calcium Carbonate

Calcium carbonate, commonly known as agricultural lime or calcite, is a naturally occurring compound that contains calcium and carbonate ions. Calcium carbonate helps plants grow by providing essential calcium, adjusting soil pH, improving soil structure, and promoting nutrient availability. It's an important tool for managing soil acidity and enhancing overall plant health.  It's often used as a soil amendment to improve soil structure and provide essential calcium to plants. Attributes include: pH Adjustment: One of the primary benefits of calcium carbonate is its ability to raise soil pH. It acts as a natural buffer, reducing soil acidity (lowering the concentration of hydrogen ions) and making the soil more alkaline. This can be particularly useful in soils that are too acidic for optimal plant growth. Many plants thrive in slightly acidic to neutral pH ranges, and adjusting pH can improve nutrient availability and overall plant health. Calcium Supply: Calcium is a vital nutrie
