What is the difference between fine dolomite lime and garden lime / pulverized limestone? I use garden lime outside in my garden. I want to mix my own indoor potting soil that calls for one cup of fine dolomite lime. What's the difference? I've also heard of hydrated lime. Is that garden lime, either?

do not use the hydrated lime.their is no difference betwen dolomite lime and garden lime.

I read about hydraded lime and have already decided not to purchase any. If you are sure about the dolomite lime being the same as pulverized limestone / garden lime, than you saved me a hella lot of trouble. Thanks.

difference betwen dolomite lime and garden lime

dolomite lime is high in magnesium as well as calcium

garden lime is mainly just calcium

I am NOT sure this is true, but a local nursery employee said the 'dolomite lime' is made ground seashells, while regular lime is from ground stone, etc ... beats the hell outta me
