Raises carbonate hardness (KH).
Raises potassium.
2000meq/L (5600dKH).

Overview
Carbonate hardness, (KH), is a measure of the bicarbonate & carbonate content of the water. Carbonate hardness contributes to pH stability and can also act as a CO2 backup reserve if CO2 levels fall too low.

carbonate™ is derived from potassium bicarbonate. It increases both carbonate hardness and potassium. The concentration of carbonate™ is 2000meq/L (5600dKH). In addition, it contains 78,300mg/L potassium.

Sizes: 350ml

Directions
Add 30ml to 60L of water once a week (or as needed). This dose raises carbonate hardness by 1meq/L (2.8dKH). For unbuffered water or in the absence of CO2 injection, use ¼ to ½ dose to avoid impacting pH.

Plant preferences vary, but a good rule of thumb is about 1-2meq/L (3-6dKH). This dose increases potassium by 40mg/L.
