Most rock from saws is a powder, and commercial products are too. Yeah about every 5 years I test my soil to see if I need to make any adjustments. For me long term is exactly what I'm looking for. I have to use sulfur for my blueberries and understand it takes 6 months to a year to work. I prep new beds a year in advance of adding new plants. I waited 30 years for a cactus to flower, so a year or two is no big deal.
Even compost takes a year to break down, part of gardening.
