Subject: Running out of time on Lime


North Carolina
We picked up a couple of small farms recently that have not been farmed in many years, both have been kept mowed and the ground is smooth. Both are classified as HEL, so we do not want to do any tillage at all. Soil test came back with a 5.2 ph. We need to plant it in corn, but we are running out of time to get the lime down. Ground is saturated now, and will be for the near future. Are there some good options for getting a band of calcium down, that will benefit this year's corn? We are setup to apply up to 400 lbs of dry fertilizer 2×2 and up to 15 gallons of 32% on each side of the row. Insecticide boxes are not being used. We are limited to those numbers with the planter.
Thanks.
