Lime can raise the pH levels of the soil, making it less acidic. This can affect Leylandii trees by potentially making the soil more alkaline, which may impact the tree's nutrient uptake and overall health. It is important to perform a soil test before applying lime to determine if it is necessary and in what quantities.

What are the differences between quick lime and hydrated lime, and how do they affect their respective uses in various applications?
Quicklime and hydrated lime are both forms of lime, but they differ in their chemical composition and properties. Quicklime is calcium oxide, while hydrated lime is calcium hydroxide. Quicklime is more reactive and caustic, making it suitable for applications like water treatment and construction. Hydrated lime is less reactive and is often used in agriculture and as a pH stabilizer in soil. The differences in their properties affect their effectiveness and safety in different applications.

Home-made recipes typically mix cow manure, lime and water; cow manure, lime, soot and sulfur; or carbolic acid, lime and sulfur with gas-tar (replaced by soft soap in summer). Gardeners must consider that lime can raise the soil power of hydrogen (pH) and therefore may affect what is growing.
When do you lime Leyland cypress trees?
At the time of planting and in the fall describe the times when Leyland cypress trees can be limed. The evergreen hedge and screen in question (Cupressus x leylandii) flourishes in slightly acidic to neutral soils, especially in pH (power of hydrogen) ranges from 5.0 or 5.5 to 6.0 or 6.5. Soil tests need to be conducted about every three to four years and lime applied if results suggest raising a pH at or below 5.0 into the safety zone up to 6.5.
