    I got K2SO4 from this guy who sell hydroponics stuff. Comes in powder form.

    Here is the address.
    Hydroponics & Plant Care Pte Ltd
    Blk 461 #01-K1
    Crawford Lane
    Singapore 190461
    Tel: 62946578

    Call them first to check if he has the stock just before you go down. I waited about 45mins just for the guy to search and pack the K2SO4. It is a small koisk who is helping this Dr. Mallick guy to retail hydroponics stuff.

    I remembered he had KNO3 too, but not too sure about KCl.

    NTUC sells "Lo-Salt" which is 66% KCL and 33% NaCl. Can consider using that too.

    I had been using Lo-Salt for about a year. The NaCl part seems harmless to the tank. Recently I switched to K2SO4 from Dr Mallick. It has more K by weight.

    Maybe you can try lab chemical supplier. I have one contact but have not actually bought any chemical from them.

    Let me know if you are successful getting your KCl from them.

    You can use diluted HCL (1%) to rinse your Ph electrode.
