NPK fert + gran lime at same time

Conmaicne Mara

Question was put to me yesterday that lime applied at the same time as say 10-10-20 would negatively affect the 10-10-20.

Looking for informed thoughts on that?

If it is a problem, what time gap is recommended?

Am talking in terms of my reseed where I planned to spread both gran lime and 10-10-20.

No issue whatsoever. The only time you have to be concerned with lime and fert is if it's lime and urea.
Any time I'm reseeding I collect and blend granulime and 10-10-20 in the spreader together and spread together.
Drive on

It's fine as long as their is no urea being spread. For Urea I think there has to be a 3 month gap. 10-10-20 is fine though.

I was thinking it was urea alright, seen it mentioned here before. Didn't know for 100% sure so thought better to ask.

Granlime doesn't react with Urea.

Ground lime does react with urea. Urea first and then lime no problem however lime first no urea should be spread for at least 12 weeks

Op I mix glime and 10/10/20 when stitching
