Wow this is the good stuff.
GLA fertilizers are the best and their Potassium is unmatched. Super clean and very very fine. I was surprised because it’s normally not so clean and fine I thought it was calcium so I emailed. The potassium they use is micro mixed and ultra fine filtered. No impurities. This stuff is so fine you can easily make foliar spray with it. Love GLA fertilizers.
