If using soil just use Blackstrap unsulfered molasses at 1 Tbsp per gal water.

No bull - this is the potassium you need to use. Start of at 1/4 and then 1/2 of what the directions suggest. Work your way up to 1 or 2 teaspoons per gallon.This stuff is not over priced and does the trick hands down. Works time and time again.

But that has gobs of P and almost no K. Monopotassium phosphate is 0-50-30. For a pure potassium hit, try potassium sulfate. That might be hard to find, but every hardware store sells potassium nitrate (as a stump remover), which is 13-0-44. I would find some of that. cn

It's potassium sulfate solution. It'll work a treat, but it's a bit pricy compared to hardware-store KNO3. The other advantage, of course, is that as a liquid you can measure it and not need to weigh it or prepare a stock solution. cn

Foxfarm big bloom has organic potash

If your hardware store sells Sul-Po-Mag, it's the mineral langbeinite, a compound sulfate of potassium and magnesium. It's not super soluble, so it'll be a good boost-and-sustain source of both K and Mg (as well as S). Just tossing that into the ring. cn

Muriate of potash 0-0-60 should be available at any garden center about $6

True, but muriate means "chloride". At least as much harm as benefit. It's also available in every grocery store as "table salt substitute", and I didn't mention it because of the chloride issue. Jmo. cn
