Dolomitic lime will change ph, but only very slightly.
You need to apply lbs per acre rate as lbs per 100 sq ft before Dolomitic
lime becomes a factor.
(aka The Gareth Rate)
I forgot where I put the data, but if I recall correctly
it's 1 lb per 100 sq ft raises pH 0.1 Not enough to worry about.
Your fish emulsion will override that.
