    Yea it ain't sounding good for just 2 acres worth.

    Not this time of year. If it can wait a few months and let them finish spreading fertilizer on crops you might find someone who has a couple of tons of lime laying around. This is something they usually do in the fall/winter months.

    Cut the roads back to at least 12ft wide. No one wants to run their $300k Vector through the bushes.

    Meherrin has a pull behind spreader they will let you rent by the day. That would be your best bet this time of year.

    For two acres, have you thought about just going the pelletized route and spreading with a tractor? If your prescription isn't too crazy you will be able to get it done a lot faster than waiting on the spreader to come.

    I have. I would need 2200 pounds per acre of pelletized if I go that route.

    That's not terrible, 110 bags. My dad and I put out 40 bags in about three or four hours earlier this year. The best luck we had with getting the truck to come out was to get on their schedule in January, still didn't get done until March.

    What are yall paying for bulk lime?
    It's not enough to simply tolerate the 2nd Amendment as an antiquated inconvenience. Caring for the 2nd Amendment means fighting to restore long lost rights.
