What Customers Are Saying
The Pennington Fast Acting Lime is reported to be effective at quickly raising soil pH and improving lawn health, with many customers describing it as fast-acting and easy to apply. However, some users experienced issues with the product being sticky, messy, and difficult to clean, as well as unevenly sized granules that can clog spreaders. While the product appears to work well when used correctly, the messy application is a common complaint among customers.

I won't buy this product again.
Bag had big gray and white clumps. They would not go through the spreader. Appeared to be the rubber-like polymer. I had to crumble them by hand to spread the material.

I bought it on the promise of fast acting and lo...

Pennington must have fixed the "sticky" problem

Spreader was bone dry and empty as well so I didn't have to clean that or the boots. Watered in really well and it rained about a half inch last night. My lawn is already greener. 4000 SqFt. Started with 60 lbs. Beginning PH was 5. I will report final material requirements, time interaval, and PH readings if...
