Why do you put limestone on lawns?
To make the grass grow green and healthy. Lime is calcium or magnesium compounds ground into powder. Usually the calcium and magnesium come from limestone rock. But they can also come from marl, oyster shells, or industrial byproducts. Lime makes soil pH higher. Lime is often used in commercial fertilizers.
WHAT ACIDS and alkalis are in treatment of soil?
Well alkalies can be used when acid rain falls on farmland, a limestone powder is put over the field to neutralise the acid.

What type of speleotherms found in limestone caves grow upward from the floor?
STALAGMITES
What is a type of rock where stalactites and stalagmites are found?
They usually grow from limestone. Mostly in caves.
Which way do stalagmites grow?
Stalagmites grow up.
Stalagmites grow from?
Cave floors, by the precipitation of calcite dissolved in ground-water passing through the limestone's joints above the formation.
Which way do stalagmites?
Stalagmites grow up.
What causes icicles to form in a cavern?
Caverns that form in limestone areas, due to rain water dissolving the limestone over millions of years, produce stalactites and stalagmites. Stalactites are icicle-like rock formations of deposited limestone hanging down from the cavern's roof. Stalagmites grow upwards from the cavern floor, due to the limestone solution dripping on the floor from the roof. In some cases, the stalactite and stalagmite joins in the middle to form a column.
Can rocks grow like stalactites and stalagmites?
Stalactites and stalagmites are classified as precipitates, a type of chemical sedimentary rock. Yes, rocks can grow like stalactites and stalagmites.
Do stalagmites hang up or down?
Stalagmites grow from the floor, stalagtites hang from the ceiling. I remember this by thinking stalagmites "might reach the ceiling" and stalactites are "tightly held"
Where do stalagmite and stalatites form?
They typically form in caves where they can grow undisturbed for hundreds of years. Stalagmites grow from the floor up and stalactites stick to the ceiling. Dripping water deposits minute amounts of limestone that build up over the years. +++ You do sometimes find small, rather coarse versions growing under bridges etc.built from bricks or ashlar masonry and mortar. Here, the calcite that is their constituent mineral has been leached from the structure's mortar. However caves in limestone (the rock hosting by far the majority of caves) are the natural home for stalagmites and stalactites, and their related formations.
What is its called when stalactites and stalagmites grow together?
When they join they become a pillar or a column.
What climate do limestone reefs grow in?
They grow in dirt
How do you spell stagites?
Stalagmites. This word has the letter "G" in it so we remember that stalagmites grow up from the ground. On the other hand,the word "Stalactites" has the letter "C" in it, so we remember that stalactites grow down from the "ceiling" or roof of the cave.
