Has anyone ever used CaNO3 (I think it's actually Ca(NO3)2 ) to supply NO3 and Ca at the same time? I would be curious to know how it works and what it does to GH or KH.

Re: CaNO3

Re: CaNO3
I know people have used it but I have no feedback on it. I may give it a try myself at some point, do you know what % is Ca vs. NO3 so I can calculate the doses?

Re: CaNO3
It might cause subtle issues in soft waters.
But CaCl2 never seemed to be an issue.
You could say the same thing about KCL which folks have a long history of using liberally.
Still, K2SO4, CaSO4 work well and dissolve slower, but not that much slower to be an issue.
