I've thought about trying this product in the past but never have. Has anyone here used it? What were your experiences? Has anyone had their soil tested after using it?

Used it last year Kevin and it saved me a LOT of spreader cranking, as I would have needed about 1500 pounds of gypsum to get the desired calcium level. I did have my soil tested at mid-season last year and it DOES work.

However, I would get detailed instructions from an expert as to how to dilute it. I used my Stihl to apply it, mixing the full gallon of liquid gypsum with three gallons of water. The end result was what resembled snot out the blower, even though the product appeared to dilute in the tank. I was satisfied that it had incorporated well though, as I had applied it before tilling. Four gallons of snot beats 1500 pounds of cranking.

I use Liquid Gypsum and have for several years, you can get the Ready to spray bottle that hooks to a hose and gives the perfect dilution rates.
Lmao Joe, snot does beat 1500 lbs...lol!
Kevin, we carry Liquid gypsum and recommend it.
