The Growers Minute: Should You Add Calcium to High-pH Soil?

Описание: Does adding calcium raise soil pH? What about high-pH soils—should you still apply calcium?
In this video, Jim Halbeisen breaks down one of the most common soil questions we receive.

He explains why adding calcium won’t raise pH—and how it actually improves soil structure and biology, which can help naturally lower pH over time.

Jim also touches on:
The role of calcium in flocculating (loosening) heavy soils
How improved aeration and microbial life affect the nitrogen cycle
Real-world examples from North Dakota, where high-pH soils dropped a full point after applying high-calcium lime

The takeaway: it's not just chemistry—it's biology that drives long-term soil health.
