Re: Where to Get Lime-Sulfur + Surfactant for clearing HardPan

Hi,
It's been quite the busy summer. I am finally getting a chance to give an update on my progress since my last sodium percarbonate application on July 24th. I was able to install an effluent filter just in time before the water in tank filled up to the outflow pipe. I think the level was 1 to 2 inches below the pipe. In that 6+ weeks the water has been draining in the field. The water level in the D box varies, sometimes rising more than halfway up the pipes leading to the field but most of the time it’s under the half way mark or near the bottom of the pipes. This is a wonderful result so far.

Now I need to decide if I am going to aerate the D box. Grizz, I know it’s something you’ve been wanting to do. Have you been able to finish that project?
My D box and tank are still dug up and exposed. I need to decide whether or not to put a riser on the box or try and go the winter and deal with it in the spring. Money is tight these days. I’m thinking I should even if I don’t aerate the box, it will still be easier to do another sodium percarbonate application if I need to during the frozen Maine winter.

Thanks again for all your input Grizz.
