Limestone/Calcium Carbonate - looking and need help...

#8852099 - 08/30/08 12:30 PM (18 years, 18 days ago)

Ive been looking for the suggested "calcium carbonate" or "hydrate lime" or "limestone" in the local stores and have turned up nothing.

From my readings, i gather "calcium carbonate" is the best choice due to the low possibility of contams.

My best find was a product called "fast acting lime" which was 96% calcium carbonate.

Do you think stuff will do just fine for casings and maintaing a good ph level?

Is there any links out there for a good source of calcium carbonate?

At times I get consumed by my everyday life and will leave the Shroomery. Yet, every time drugs come falling into my life for fun.....I always think about the Shroomery and then I'm back!
