I don't make a liquid solution, but what I do is the take the 3 macros (po4,no3, k2so4) I don't dose mgso4. and I add them in the correct ratios to a plastic container, shake it up so it's mixed. I then just take one amount and dose the tank every other day and the csmb same thing.KH2PO4
KNO3
K2SO4
MgSO4
CSMB
I had this same problem. I am using this recipe:Currently I'm using PPS but I am considering switching to EI. However, I'm totally lost. I've looked at a couple of different calculators and they spit out different amounts which makes no sense to me. One I've seen mentioned here a few times, Rotala Butterly, only seems to take into account one fert at a time which doesn't seem particuarly helpful if, like me, you aren't entirely sure how to balance multiple ferts together.
I'm wanting to use a solution for ease of use. Just seems easier to dump a set solution in each day rather than opening multiple containers and measuring fractions of teaspoons every day. But I am open to suggestions on this.
These are the ferts I have on hand along with 1 liter dosing bottles:
KH2PO4
KNO3
K2SO4
MgSO4
CSMB
So I was thinking about dosing 10-15 mL per day, but I just got lost on how much of which ones to use. As mentioned, Rotala only does one at a time. AquariumCalculators says to only use KNO3 and KH2PO4 along with the traces. So can someone point me in the right direction here?
