Ammonium persulphate

(1/1)

Daisy:
Been down to the lottie today, I've had the lottie for just over 6 months and am in the process of sorting through rubbish left by the previous owner. Today I found 2 tubs marked ammonium persulphate and I've no idea what it is, checked on internet and there is some mention of it being a soil conditioner. I'd be grateful for any advice.

tim:
Gut feeling? Bin it. It's not exactly your most needed additive? = Tim

Daisy:
Thanks Tim.......intend to, but I just wondered if the previous owner had used it on the lottie and if so what for.

Plantsman.:
Ammonium persulfate crystals are used as an alternative to  ferric chloride solutions for copper etching.

I don't think it would have any horticultural application.

tim:
I thought, perhaps, he might have been engraving his own labels!! = Tim
