PMDD is just a reciepe for ferts (PMDD is used in EI), so what do you mean with the "PMDD method"?
I guess I meant with PMDD as outlined here http://www.thekrib.com/Plants/Fertilizer/pmdd-tim.htmlPMDD is just a reciepe for ferts (PMDD is used in EI), so what do you mean with the "PMDD method"?
No......... you don't any more than PPS.They're all eye ball method really..
PPS is simpler for me because you mix everything together and every day you add 1ml or whatever of the stuff. It's like feeding the fish in routine.
You have to schedule with EI.
Dosing EI for me was just as easy as dosing PPS. All I did was put the required dry ferts into little containers. Every day dispense (as you said like feeding the Fish) alternating between Macros, and Micros, then once a week refill the containers.PPS is simpler for me because you mix everything together and every day you add 1ml or whatever of the stuff.

Yeah. During the rainy season it's pointless. I just started again taking it out to the garden.no garden for you to recycle the water? That's what I do. And our waters are special!
Check out PPS - Pro, it requires no WC and is quite a bit more forgiving with CO2 levels then EI IMO. I have been using it for the last month with great results. I have been using 2 bubbles a second on a 50 gallon and doing 30% WC's. So far, awesome!!! It will grow plants slower then EI, but if this is not a concern for you, you might find it to work well for you as well.I like the EI method, it's pretty straightforward. I wish there was a way around 50% water changes. I have three tanks which wastes a lot of water. I don't feel good about it. I'm reading in this last Newsweek about the scarcity of clean water in much of the rest of the world.
I'd like my growth a little slower!:icon_smil I'll check it out, thanks.It will grow plants slower then EI, but if this is not a concern for you, you might find it to work well for you as well.
