lime would make your soil basic i.e. less acidic. ammonium will remain available to plants only when in acidic atmosphere with little exposure to air, other wise it will either bleach away, evaporate into the air, or be used by other organisms in the soil and will not be available to the plant.
Because when the chemicals react, you would end up with with NH4OH, a powerful base. The lime would also neutralize the ammonium in the fertilizer, so the benefits of both additives would be lost.
they aliminate each others effects
ammonium sulphate
Aqueous ammonia is ammonium hydroxide NH4OH. When it is added to limewater which is actually calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)2 there will be no reaction.
The lime added to sweeten the soil is usually white limestone. It makes soil less acidic.
im not very sure but as it reacts with(neutralises) Lime(alkaline), im guessing they're mostly acidic. Correct me if im wrong. thanks.
To move the soil pH out of the acidic range is the reason for adding lime to the soil.Specifically, the soil pH levels indicate the soil's acidity, neutrality or alkalinity. The scale runs from zero through 14. Typically, the range of 6.0 or 6.5 to 7.0 is interpreted as neutral. Readings below that range are acidic. Readings above the range indicate an alkaline soil.Adding lime to soil helps to raise the soil pH to a less acidic level and more towards the neutral range in which many edible and ornamental plants grow.

Fertilizer was first used by the ancient Romans who tilled their crops and added nitrogen and lime to the soil because they knew it would help grow their plants.

This depends on the PH (acidity-alkalinity of your soil), the lime may not be required.There will be some lime in the fertilizer but,if, after a soil test, lime is required, it can be applied at the same time as the fertilizer.
Yes you can. The lime will not interfere with you application of fertilizer.
Trees that grow within a narrow range of acidity or neutrality cannot have lime fertilizer around them.Specifically, lime fertilizer acts to raise the soil pH. Trees that survive within a narrowly defined range of acidity cannot handle fluctuations that may be provoked by lime fertilizer applications. Similarly, trees that require soil pH levels within the neutral range do not respond well to even the slightest alkalinizing of soils.
Yes, lime fertilizer can affect small children.Specifically, lime fertilizer can have irritating effects on people and wildlife. It irritates the skin. Applicators therefore must make sure that treatments are not applied in the presence of children or pets. They also need to be sure to wear proper protective clothing that puts a barrier between the fertilizer and the person's eyes, mouth, nose and skin.
The fertiliser lime is the sedimentary rock limestone.
quick lime or slaked lime is added to acidic soil
A balanced complete fertilizer is the best fertilizer for avocado trees (Persea spp).Specifically, avocado trees benefit from equal intakes of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. They therefore favor balanced complete fertilizer. A complete fertilizer has all three of the macronutrients nitrogen, phosophorus and potassium. A complete fertilizer is balanced when the percentage weights of the macronutrient ingredients are equal, such as in 10-10-10 fertilizer.
should I spread lime and fertilizer at same time under large trees
The color is pink with phenolphthalein.
