To be fair that's not entirely accurate. There is different forms of N and it actually makes a big difference whether your fert is mainly comprised of ammonium or nitrate nitrogen.
I've seen it a few times on here people using cheap Walmart fertilizer that was mostly ammonium based nitrogen, and that would likely burn your plants and mess with ph.

Never heard that term. There is no “food grade”?
I have heard nute conpanies call them “pharmaceutical grade”.
How come folks dont have problems with jacks classic? Also no calcium.
Because they run Cal Nitrate with it also

I guess its intended for tap water.
Intended for soil with Ca already in it

Well ok then. :-)
