I dunno, I havent seen the tree :D stick some pics up when you get the chance.

yeah, you tend to repot so the tree doesnt become pot bound when the roots grow too big. Of course if you want to put it in a bigger pot becuase the one you have is too small then that is fine too. Repotting is usually done when the tree is in its dormant stage so you dont damage it. I use a...

nice tree species bob theres a small guide here and you could leave it outside at the moment, just make sure it doesnt dry out in this heat. http://www.bonsai4me.com/SpeciesGuide/Sageretia.html What did you mean by what size to repot in your other post?

should be fine Bob. The only thing you have to watch with Bonsai is that you dont induce reverse osmosis whereby the roots of the tree cant take up water due to having too much ferts. Your idea of every fourth should be fine but also remember that Bonsai only get ferts when they are growing...

:lol:

no probs Bob, i know stuff all about EI anytway :lol:

I cant imagine it would make a difference as I dump 80 litres of the stuff in my tank at water change!

thanks ceejay. No water changes for 6 weeks! was that on a lowtech tank and im assuming they werent using aquasoil?

This is mine for 182l 90x45x45cm tank. It does seem loads? The amount below on mine would last 5 days. Ill also be interested on the views of multiple water changes on an EI tank in the first few weeks of setup. Stock Solution Method :- You will need to make up two stock...

i put 15ml per day into my 182l but its fully planted. Your dose will depend on the amount of plants and how much light and co2 you're putting into the tank. Ill try dry powders one day but ive been saying that for the last two years :)

just like adding sugar to tea :)

the cat litter will also work in a similar way to akadama as they both have high CEC (great for Bonsai too), just the cat litter is tougher and doesnt crumble as easily. i actually thought the miracle grow tabs were the same as osmocote from the ones ive seen in garden centres.

there's a recipe on Aquaessentials page for using Potassium Carbonate

mm, dry salts. its all crazy magic stuff you know! :D

ah, cheers paulo. must have misread the first page. Ive been doing 2/3 TPN and 1/3 TPN+ for a while on my tanks anyway so I can try it with this mix as Ive got some of the +

ive bought some to give it a go on one of my tanks. pretty good saving if it works as well as TPN+

was speaking to jim at tgm the other week and he mentioned a conversation with tropica that they were trialing using TPN and TPN+ on alternate days and were getting good results.

cheers paulo :D

oops, didnt know this. Ive got HC and ive been putting 5ml TPN+ and 3ml of easycarbo into a Rio 125 per day. Should i be upping these?
