Default RE: Did I lime it enough?

Yeah the ph was pretty bad, I think it was like 3.4 or so, I talked to the guys at the local fertilizer plant where I got the lime, and they said that this lime, is pulverized, and will go into the soil faster than the other type, but will also not last as long either. They also said that it usually dont take as much of this type as the normal bulk lime, but it is much more expensive. I dont know much about liming and fertilizing plots yet, but I guess Ill test them again in early spring and see how much more I need then.Oh I almost forgot, I put the lime on and disked the plots about a month or so before I planted them, and disked them again right before I put out the seed. Also what kind of fertilizer should I use on these kinds of plots? Any help is appreciated. Thanks
