East Texas red clay soils are quite acid. Removing pine trees likely won't make much difference. We have to lime at the rate of 2 tons to the acre every 2-3 years in this area to keep a ph above 7. Regular ag lime is pretty slow and only about 55% effective per ton. Superfine ag lime from Texas Crushed Stone in Georgetown is about 98% effective per ton. Being finely ground it reacts faster as well. We just got a quote of $70 per ton trucked to the Tyler/Kilgore area and dumped. We'll still have to get it spread in the lake.
