Hummm, well the stuff I bought is 100% potash 0-0-60 and it's reddish brown
pebbles.....

Ah, potash. I used to work for an engineering company in Saskatchewan that
did a lot of work for potash mines, so I've spent a fair amount of time
underground (my SO thinks maybe they should have kept me there.) Anyway, it
depends how processed the potash is; red is fine, white is just more
processed.

The mines were way cool. Not like you would imagine a coal mine for example.
You could drive along in electric cars.
