Hi,
Apologies for such a basic question. I’m using Aquavitro Synthesis and trying to calculate an appropriate dose on Rotala Butterfly and it returns values for N and NO3.
If chasing a specific NO3 number i.e. 30 ppm do I:
A. Solve for NO3 and ignore the N component
B. Halve the NO3 target and accept the N value.
It makes a big difference to the amount of ferts used.
I understand that N converts to NO3 at 4.43. In the 30ppm example it would be
15 ppm NO3 and 3.41 ppm N (according to Rotala Butterfly) which equates to roughly 15ppm NO3.
Similar issues occur in
activate for phosphorus and phosphate; and in
seachems potassium between potassium and potassium oxide.
Any advice is much appreciated.
