many people mis understand that organic fertilizers break down into nitrates (the part that the plant is acsualy using )as do all fertlizers so if u use nitrate salts and flush it well youll be fine it is more eficent larger yeild and just as safe if it is flushed right the by products from the fertlizer is another storie they sell most of it but yess it has an inpact on the envierment

i use these chemicals in parts, i have calcium nitrate, potassium nitrate, mono-potassium phosphate magnesium sulfate and trace element mix. also i use phosphoric acid and H2O235% they are awesome in both results and cost. you add what element you need without the other, and you start counting the res cost in cents. they come in 25kg bags and trace element is 2kg. if you need any tips just ask ;)

i cant seem to find it were i am o well i have 9 mouths to
thats easy, get the business phone index and look into agricultural corps, you will find several fertilizer wholesalers, the ones who sell farmers. you know farmers who grow tons of food dont go to the hydro shop lol. anyway these wholesalers would have these chemicals and more.

not just potassium phosphate, also get calcium nitrate, potassium nitrate, magnesium sulfate(epsom salt) and trace element mix. actually all plants use these elements just in different ratios, you can say you got roses, tomatoes, herbs, trees, or a hobby garden with a variety. they shouldnt ask anyway, if they do then it's cuz theyr tryin to sell you more. they dont really care. you can get many more elements like magnesium nitrate and triple superphosphate but not necessary. the ones i mentioned first are the MUST have the others are to make it fancier. if you buy them, thats a lifetime supply that wont end and i assure you that you will not regret it :)

wtf why are you even considering buying chemicals then? get some brand fert like GH cuz if you cannot get any nitrates you cant make good hydro ferts.

amonium nitrate is not used in hydro becuz amonia nitrogen must be broken down by soil bacteria, calcium nitrate would be good becuz its also a calcium supply. i think you could get through with only calcium nitrate potassium phosphate mg-sulfate, and trace elements, you need some nitrate that dont have amonia

just got an idea. you could go to places that sell roses and plants in pots and so. these are many times also landscapers and work with customers in their gardens, i know they would supply them with small amounts of whatever chemicals they need with profits, that is they sell you a small bag 300-400grams for like 5 or 10$. i've seen couple of places that have the same bags of ferts i got and they would sell you a small quantity of all the chemicals you want
