Hi Guys,
I'm a little stumped.
I read on James website the following for the macro mix:
Assuming they are in the same bottle 10 ml of the solution would provide for a 180l tank:
Potassium Nitrate (KNO3) - 2.04ppm
Potassium Phosphate (KH2PO4) - 0.48ppm
According to Nutricalc i should be hitting 2.66ppm KNO3 and 1.22ppm KH2PO4 on each dose (based on 3 doses a week for a 180l tank)
I'm confused.... can anyone explain? According to my calculations I would have to add 30g KN03 and 40g KH2PO4 to 500ml of water to reach the desired ppm from one solution.
Can anyone help before my brain melts?
