Potassium Sulfate

15 years ago

Most advice I read on the internet says that Choride forms of Potassium or those derived from muriate of potash should be avoided because it is toxic to blueberries. These same experts advise that only potassium sulphate be used. I have looked hi and low for a complete fertilizer that has Potassium sulphate (which should be labeled K2SO4) all I can find is K2O, which the labels invariably describe as being derived from muriate of potash. I have also seen other growers on this site saying they use Florikan and Osmokote, which according to the labels are also K2O forms. So what is the real deal about what form of potassium to use on blueberries. In practice, it doesn't seem like the experts advice translates to the real world.
