Default Ok to add KNO3 without others?

Adding KNO3 by itself is fine, however it can cause a slow pH climb as the
NO3 is used by the plants faster and in greater qualities than the K.

To Tom Barr or any other PMDD specialists: I'm going to be dosing my
aquarium with potassium nitrate, potassium sulfate, and potassium

phospate.
Right now I can only get potassium nitrate (I can't get the others

locally
but will within the next few weeks). Can I just add potassium nitrate

alone
to the aquarium without the others?


Yes. A lot of people do. Just keep an eye on your nitrate levels. You

don't
want to increase them too much, too fast.
