Source of KNO3 in Australia
Anyone out there have a source?
The plant nursury I used before no longer stocks KNO3, and I can only find laboratory suppliers who want me to pay $50 for 500g. Ta, Graham.

G'day Cam'per,
I just re-read my previous post and I came across as a bit rude. No offence intended. The problem with pharmacies in Sydney is that they generally only sell name brand drugs. Ask for tylenol and they'll know what you mean. Ask for KNO3 and they'll raise their eyebrows :-) I had huge problems obtaining pure ammonia from a pharmacy - they had to order it in and needed a copy of my drivers licence. Anyway, I did find a source of suitable grade KNO3 eventually, thanks for your help, and again, my apologies if my previous post sounded rude. Graham. "Happy'Cam'per" wrote in message ...

G'day Michi,
That was the clue I needed. A Hydroponics supplier in Sydney had it for $5 or $10 per kilo (depending who answered the phone. :-) I ended up paying $5 for a kilo. http://www.simplegrow.com.au under the bulk chemical and raw fertiliser link. Thanks very much for your help. Graham. "Michi Henning" wrote in message ... I looked in the Yellow Pages for hydroponics suppliers.
