Potassium hydroxide

If you ever use Drano on a hose, on a sink in your house, you're using sodium hydroxide.

NaOH, KOH, LiOH, notice the f- uh, the thing of OH.

And again, metals lead the, lead the r- compound there.

So sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide.

I'm not dogmatic about potassium sources, although there are some new ideas.

I would never, never say never, but I would never recommend potassium hydroxide, KOH, in our alkali environment.

But I hear people do that, and if I got an acid environment, I might wanna use that, but not in my soils with pHs of 7.5 to eight.

I want something that's more acid-forming, such as potassium thiosulfate.
