Re: [AGA-Member] Potassium Test Kit

["S. Hieber" <shieber@yahoo.com>]

Yep. A test kit isn't of much value unless you know what
the numbers mean -- to much? too little?

There was an APD discussion a few months back about excess
potassium possibly causing some leaf distortion.

My experience, limited as it is, is that whatever the safe
range is, it is pretty darned wide, and I'd rather err on
the side of a little more than needed than too little.
