d-Limonene and Lime in NYC

[Spira]

After looking at store after store today I wasn't able to find Limonene or Pickling lime anywhere. Does anybody know where I can find them?

If not, I guess I'll buy them online but it would've been nice for SWIM to do his extraction this weekend.

Limo is nearly impossible to find anywhere but online, so I can't help you there.

Calcium hydroxide is sold as pickling lime as you mentioned as well as Kalkwasser for fish tanks. You should be able to find some at a pet store, just make sure it is pure lime, which it normally is. Fish tank pH additives are very strictly pure.

I should buy HP instead of FG limonene correct?

Nope , Foodgrade is the way too go, even though its less pure,its safer for SWIY,
since there's always a possibility it might end in the final product and Food Grade says it all.
But it doesnt mean you can drink this ,its just safer.

As for Calcium C
heres a link you can try

Hey there,
I'm also in New York, looking for the same stuff. Did you eventually find it locally?
thanks

You can get the calcium hydroxide (lime) in most gardening stores. That advice helped me out big time.

I know where to get in NYC

Google " Ace Hardware"

Go to store locator

Find store close to you

Call store before you go there to see if they are in stock of "Hydrated Lime" which is Calcium Hydroxide!
