I did an old K+ from KNO3 discussion back when dosing lots and lots of K+ was en vogue.
You'd basically need about 3X the demand from N before you'd exhaust the K based on plant tissue rations.
In other words, unless you have 75% of your N demand coming from fish waste, it's not likely you'd need to add more K+ from say K2SO4.
K2SO4 is added to GH booster, but this is just a save all for folks who do not use KNO3, or do not dose Ca++ or have RO and need to add GH back, or do not add Mg etc.
It hits everything.
I lard on the K+, always have.
So I can rule out all the claims about poor health and growth due to pretty high so called excess ranges.
So have many other folks over nearly 15-20 years now.
Does not say why you have issues, only says what is cannot be due independent of any other factors.
I have mountains of Blyxa, Stem plants, Hygro Brown got massive, L granulosus, I've grown this as nice as anyone I've ever seen. Hairgrass is fair non responsive to most changes, it's a tough foreground plant. But the bottom line is there is no reason t lard it on, but doing so should not cause any issues.
