    I have parts of my farm rich in buttercups IE it needs lime in places. I`d like to spread some lime where its needed only so I`m planning on ordering a lorry load of ground limestone.
    Is there any reason why I cant spread this with my own wag-tale fertilizer spreader?
    (or is this just madness:rolleyes:)

    Wagtails usually spread kgs per ha.. (or cwts per acre) lime is usually spread in tonnes per ha. probably can be done but take an age to keep on refilling

    As you say yourself Madness, It could turn into the longest job of your life spreading as you suggest and I would be 99% sure its not possible. A belt spreader is needed for lime ie bredal, quarry will spread for it for only a few quid more
