What happens here
The creator discusses the need to lime his fields to increase the soil's pH, which is currently too low (around 4-4.5) for optimal growth. He mentions that fall is generally the best time for applying lime, and that they will need to apply a substantial amount, specifically 2-3 tons of lime per acre, to adjust the pH closer to 7.
Goal: Improve soil acidity for better crop growth
