Old bucket of kent @ 38ppt:
10.9 dkh
New bucket of kent @ 39ppt:
3.6 dkh
 Going to email J&L tommorow and buy a new bucket of Seachem.

I was thinking about this this morning wondering why I got 3.6dkh, higher then everyone else. Then I remembered that I used about 3 cups of salt from the old bucket out of 14 total, which would explain my higher reading.
