## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used to make a plant fertiliser?**
A: It's pure Potassium Nitrate so yes. In fertiliser terms, this used to be known as "nitrate of potash", so simply use it in the same way, however I couldn't say what the usage rate should be for this type of application, hopefully you or Google will know..

**Q: Can you use just this and a dehydrator to make beef jerky?**
A: No, it is extremely toxic used on its own. You need to do some research. Google is your friend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It is sometimes used as a low sub milligram dose Food grade supplement for "NO" creation
*by I***L on 20 December 2023*

Potassium Nitrate is sometimes used as a precursor ingredient for the great beneficial action of Nitric oxide. NO is fundamental in human biology. This is not offered as advice, so you must do your own research.
