| Hello friends and fellow gardeners;
Does anyone know of a good nitrogen replacement for ammonium nitrate? I used to be able to buy that easily but it has become impossible to find over the past few years. I use it on my nitogen loving sugar snap pea's. Thanks for any suggestions :) Rick |

| Try calcium nitrate Ca(NO3)2 Or potassium nitrate KNO3 Both are soluble sources of nitrogen. It probably will require a special order with you farm store or greenhouse supplier. Also, it will be in at least a 20 lb. bag, which may be too much for your needs. An alternative is to find a soluble plant food with a large proportion of nitrate nitrogen vs. other forms of nitrogen and has a high first number. Jim |
