I'm gonna show my ignorance here, but I always thought Barn Lime, Dolomitic Lime, and AgLime were all the same thing... crushed limestone.
The "AgLime" I bought from TS was about $6 or $7 per 50 lb bag and was pulverized into a very, very fine powder. I'm not familiar with the $2.99/bag stuff you are talking about, but maybe it's just crushed at a different consistency?
FWIW, I thought $7/50lb was a pretty decent deal for the amount I bought... I'm looking forward to getting schooled on the differences here by the PB smart people.
Ready... GO!
