Has anyone used potassium nitrate on there plants in flower and have you noticed any differance in burnability.
It's used in gun powder and i just thaught that it might make a differance. on the other hand, it could be one of the worst things to add, any input wellcome'd

Fun stuff. Never used it on plants though, :lol:.

We use to get it in the garden section but it was labeled stump remover. Makes awesome smoke bombs too. It's probably pretty potent though for plants, but if they need K and N it's probably fine. Just a guess, but I'm pretty sure it's used for fertilizer too.
