All I can find around here is the big ass 50 pounds bags of gypsum. Has anyone ever used a chunk or drywall/sheetrock and crumbled it into a powder and used this for casing buffer?


I have used oyster shell in the past but it doesn't dissolve enough to be 100% effective

I thought so, thanks rr. I think i might just get a small bag of cactus soil, it is ph balanced and should work fine also.

Doesnt Gypsum lower pH? Why use it? Why do people use Gypsom and Calcium carbonater or lime. THey seem contradictory.




This is a clear case of UTFSE!!!
