calcium nitrate
Hi,
A year or so ago I bought a sack of calcium nitrate. The only size they had
was 20 pounds. Now it has turned into a rock. I've been out there
hammering on it, and it sounds like I'm hammering a chunk of metal - clink,
clink, clink. If I break anything off, it's large pebble- to, maybe,
golf-ball size chunks. I don't want little concentrated globs of the stuff
in my soil.
Does anyone have any experience with this stuff? If I brought it inside (if
it gets chilly again), would the furnace/dry air make it easier to break up?
Should I soak chunks in a bucket of water, then pour that on the patch?
Or should I throw this away and go buy another sack? If I buy more, will
the next batch fare better if I put it in an airtight container?
Thanks!
Beth
