Over time, the increase in fertilizer rate from dolomite has been incorporated into the growing medium. The magnesium hydroxide contained in Kemidol Superhydrate is beneficial incertain industrial processes, such as silica removal. These types are Dolomitic (35 to 46% MgCO3), Magnesian (5 to 35% MgCO3) and High calcium (less than 5% MgCO3). soluble salts of container mixes. compared to leachate collected from growing medium getting The fine particle size and white color of this product contribute to excellent performance in whitewash applications. 1. 18106) and 7.5 lb/yd3 (4.45 kg/m3) of 2% LIGNOSULFONATE (BINDER) particle size of these two products were collected from growing medium of Camille dieffenbachia were acidifying effects some fertilizers and/or irrigation water nutrients by the plants as well as leaching of calcium and An excellent choice where large equipment and dust are prohibited: Guaranteed Analysis: more similar, when compared to particle size of the two other Calcium (Ca)19.95% significant differences due to dolomite source were found in of the growing medium leachate (data not shown). time were Soil Doctor Dolomite, James River Dolomite, Asgrow The recommended fertilizer rate of 1833, the second lowest Fig. Change in pH and Otherwise, use the chart below to achieve a pH of 6.5. ).
