Why is lime used to reduce the acidic content of soil?
Lime is a base, which is the opposite of an acid. Adding a base to something which is acidic will reduce the acidity (PH). This needs to be done with care, lime is a powerful and dangerous chemical. Improper handling can result in chemical burns, eye damage or poisoning. Too much lime in soil is a worse problem than too much acidity, it is important to follow appropriate manufacturer's guidelines concerning the amount of lime used. Garden stores sell acidity testing products which will assist you in adjusting the PH balance of soil.
