Victor. There is a lot of confusion on here regarding ph controller use. Or weather you should leave on for 24 hrs. The main thing to remember is to have the co2 steady and on constantly while the light period is on. How you achieve this is up to you. There is nothing wrong with using a ph...

Interesting thread, i too have often wondered why ADA, tropica etc. suggest to add weekly, but if you follow EI you add 3 times a week or even daily. I personnaly belive there is no right or wrong way as long as you achieve the results you are after. Some people prefer to add daily, others...

Are you maybe gassing them? Too much CO2 or not enough O2, surface agitation!

Re: Sharing online calculators for ferts, glut, and dropchec Should this be made a sticky? And maybe some links to other calcs out there :)

James planted tank to the rescue for this one! Solubility's In Water There are limits on how much of a salt can be dissolved in water. As this limit is reached it becomes increasingly difficult to dissolve more. If you are experiencing difficulties in dissolving any of the salts then try...

Most people add traces to achieve the fe ppm content they wish. As sulphur is in the trace mix we tend not to worry how many ppm we add as it is normally enough if the fe target has been reached. Plants need and Benefit from all trace elements.

As Ceg says. Just work out how much to add to reach fe target level. If dosing EI you want around 0.5ppm fe. I'm sure one of the chemists on this site would work out how many mg per 100L of granules you would need to add. At a guess i would say somewhere around 600mg per 100l but you need to...

Oh I always read that you add the total amount of dry fert to the 500ml water when making solutioins, not add water to dry ferts upto 500g (ml) oops

Me Again! This thread got me thinking! I have been dosing EI as per instructions from Barr Report and been doing so for 3 years. Therefore i have not done much testing of my water parameters. I do not suffer from algae and have good growth. :o But Tobi and Clive you may be interested in my...

I can't help but to post in this thread :D What a good read! Tobi, its great that you would share you own recipes thanks. I don't think that there will ever be a "one works for all" fert, there are too many paramaters that chenge from one tank to another. As for Spezial N, people who use...

Hi, I like the calc well made :D I have one question, i thought to get dgh/dkh from mg/l or ppm you divide by 17.9. I think you have set it divide by 10 Is this correct
