I've done some searching on the internet and on this site and have not found specific enough answers. Maybe ya'll can help me on this one.

We've conducted soil tests to all of our properties, and in some cases tested different turf areas on the various properties. We need to apply lime to some of the properties in varying amounts. The soil tests provide the recommended rates to correct the pH.

In some cases the amount required to fix a low pH is significant. What is the maximum amount of lime that should be applied per 1,000 sq ft? I've heard that we shouldn't apply more than 50 lbs at any one time... is this accurate?

How close together can we apply the next application of lime to the lawn?

Will the lime application affect the efficacy of a fertilizer application? I've read that lime is best applied in the winter - as it takes three to four months to get the lime incorporated into the soil and to change the pH. Okay, we're not in winter time now, so is there a problem with applying lime in the spring and/or fall?
