A: Concentrated mineral salts can react or precipitate if mixed incorrectly. The current directions call for dissolving CAL-BASE in water before GROW or BLOOM.
Q: Is CAL-BASE a complete fertilizer by itself?
A: It is designed as one component of the PURE FUEL base nutrient system.
Q: Should the same rate be used with every water source?
A: No. Water mineral content and crop conditions should be considered.
