Some of you will have seen my ramblings over on the dark side, my change from high tech to low and dirty 260.
I feel I need to commence dosing ei and am unsure as to how much, after much reading and taking in many differing opinions i'm now full of information but cant seem to put it to much use DOH..
My tank is 260 litres
For high tech dosing I used the TNC ei calculator and this is what I mixed:
in solution (1000ml)
Macro - dosing 125 ml 3 x pw
31g KN03
12g KH2P04
74g MgS04
Trace
7.9g TNC trace in solution (1000ml) dosing 125 ml 2 x pw
so
with low tech, and yes it's dirted so some nutirents are available, but if say I wanted to start dosing at 25% full ei, would I mix the same strength as above but just dose less?
125 x .25 = 31.25ml once a week/fortnight?
or would I actually recalculate the ei mix to reduce down to 25% of the salts and still dose as I was?
thanks
