The University of California Cooperative Extension recommends tilling lime into the soil to a depth of 7 inches. Apply 3.5 pounds of hydrated lime to every 70 square feet of garden to raise the pH level one point. Work the lime into the soil by hand, with hand tools or a tiller, then water as usual. Hydrated lime should not be mixed with fertilizers or other garden chemicals.
