Hi All, first time poster long time reader
Long story short, i was given some ADA aquasoil by a friend and I believe he had it in his high-tech tank for about a year. I have used his ADA soil in my tank for the past 2 months with high-light and pressurised co2 and EI Dosing however i have not noticed very little growth in my plants
My theory is that my ADA has become invert and i was wondering if there is any point dosing EI ferts anymore? Does Aquasoil have a high CEC?
If ADA has become invert, has anybody tried to cap dirt with Aquasoil? How did you go, were there any problems?
I have a feeling that my c02 is not efficient enough and is limiting my plant growth. I have just ordered a reactor and am hoping that my results will change. I guess my question would be, should i wait til my reactor arrives and see if there are any progress in terms of plant growth or should i just change over to a more nutrient rich substrate?
My tank is a 2ft x 1ft tank with a 2x24 T5 HO running with 2x6500k bulbs and also using an LED strip light (not sure about wattage)
Any help would be appreciated, thanks guys :smile2:
