There is supposed to be some chemical reaction between adding lime and fert at the same time. Kind of like peeing into a toilet that has had Clorox added to it. Not a good idea.

He specifically had me use calcium carbonate as opposed to other calciums. Maybe the other componants in common garden lime are the offenders, like magnesium.

Never heard that about clorox and pee. What does it do? Explode? I knew clorox and ammonium was a no-no. I saw someone do that once. The fumes were pretty toxic.

I picked up a package of allum purple sensation, not reading the directions cause the blooms are in my favorite color. It directs the bulbs be planted in the fall. Well, it isn’t fall, in Texas, yet. How should I save these little beauties? Do I put them in the fridge, in soil? I’m stumped.
