How much lime per acre of lawn?
First you need to determine if your lawn needs lime. Lime will increase the alkalinity of the soil. You want a fairly neutral soil for lawns. That is not too acidic or too alkaline. You need to determine the pH of your soil to learn the amount of lime that will provide the desired result. A soil test with recommendations specific to correcting pH can be obtained from your local county extension service. If your question has more to do conversions there are 43,560 square foot per acre.
Does lime kill grass?
Only if it needs lime. Have someone take a soil test for you to check the pH level. If it reads between 6.5 and 6.7 your fine. If the test reads low...its too acidic and then and only then do you apply lime which may green up the lawn. If the numbers are too high then it needs to be more acidic with possibly a sulfur application. As a hot product I recommend only a professional apply sulfur or a high sulfur fertilzer...if improperly applied to your lawn, it will burn and then your grass wont be green for a while. The practice of throwing down lime every year is an old farmers tale. You could be taking your lawn in the wrong direction.
