Quicklime is a more complicated material to use as it is corrosive and if misused can ruin crops, it is recommended not to use it if we do not know very well what we are doing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Vetonek","offers":[{"title":"Saco 20 kg. \/ 63 micras","offer_id":52688821748055,"sku":"8431883000313","price":8.33,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Saco 20 kg. \/ 800 micras","offer_id":52688821780823,"sku":"8431883000290","price":7.89,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Big bag 1.000 kg. \/ 63 micras","offer_id":52688821813591,"sku":"8431883000320","price":247.13,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Big bag 1.000 kg. \/ 800 micras","offer_id":52688821846359,"sku":"8431883000306","price":231.42,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/5567\/3687\/files\/enmienda-agricola-magnesio-micronizado_cccfece0-e6a4-45b3-ab12-4d17eeaaa71b.jpg?v=1769912343","url":"https:\/\/ibizaonestop.com\/es\/products\/carbonato-calcico-o-cal-agricola-de-calcio","provider":"Ibiza One Stop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
