I; grew up around potash mines and refinerys
the redish brown color is one of its natural colors white is another
so it realy depends on which mines it came from and if it has been
refined or not highly refined potash is white

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.

It keeps your floaters from turning brown. It adds things the plants
need that they can't get in our man made ponds.

I got mine at a local garden store that also does landscaping work. Had to ask
for it as they had it in the back room. It was $2.49 for a 5# bag.

What's the dose again??

Muriate of Potash
 

Honestly I don't remember as I only used it twice last year. As I recall it
was very tiny, like a few teaspoons in my 3000 gallon pond. I remember
thinking that the bag I had was going to last for a lifetime. Maybe someone
else in the group could post the dose.

I don't about common, but chemically it is potassium cloride, KCl.
As compared to common table salt, sodium cloride, NaCl.

When the water hyacinths begin to turn pale and draw nutrients from old
leaves add Muriate of Potash at the rate of 1oz per 1,000 gallons.
(Plants must have potash to use phosphates.)

Magnesium deficiency shows same symptoms add 1 oz Epsom Salts per 1,000
gallons.
