I've used a lot of different amendments over the years, and I'm always trying new ones, or mixing this or that. Probably too much sometimes, but I do enjoy experimenting and finding new things to improve quality. Anyhow, I was wondering if anyone uses "citric acid" toward the end, because I think it could give some really interesting character, as I really love lime tones.
Here's how I put it together. 1.5L, because I usually mix for each plant. 1/4 tsp of dibasic potassium phosphate K₂HPO₄ and probably about 1/8 tsp of Potassium Bicarbonate, KHCO3 and approximately 1/8th tsp of Citric Acid. written as C6H5O3/7 or C3H5O(COO)3/3.
PH balanced to 6.5 my solution came to 680 ppm, so I diluted a tad, but not much, about half/half should be good.
It is an intermediate in the citric acid cycle, which occurs in the metabolism of all aerobic organisms.
Please feel free to share your thoughts or some of the things you use for finishing.
