Hanco, I'm no expert by any means, but I've heard you need to lime 6-12mo prior to get optimal results. I've also read that pelletized lime is more efficient than powder as in you can apply 3/4s the amount. It also takes a bunch of lime from my understanding depending on the soil. In your area I wouldn't be surprised if you had to put 2,000-4000+lbs per acre.
