Maybe it will be useful to someone in micro and macro fertilizer dosage

The plants look un healthy, which is why you are asking said question. Why not dose a bit more micro and see if it helps?
 
these are taken from my experimental setups. what is your question? what you are seeing is plant reacting to different sets of ratios.
Dude, a friend of mine sent this to me and said she used these dosages. Have you had success with these doses?

I was looking for a successful suggestion for a micro mix.

if you haven't noticed one of the Micro (right pic) was Tropica based clone. plant somehow reacted differently compared to the pic on the left where Micros were much lower. they both had some issues with what appear to be Fe deficiency, but this issue could have been related to many other factors. same Tropica clone was used on the following tank with little issue:

My standard is the following as of now (I play with them often):
Weekly:

Fe 0.1 (0.06 ppm Fe HEEDTA, 0.04 ppm Fe DTPA)
Mn 0.067
Zn 0.014
B 0.014
Cu 0.006-0.014
Mo 0.004

Fe DTPA, Fe HEEDTA, Mn EDTA, Zn EDTA, H3BO3, Cu EDTA, Na2MoO4*2H2O

Pic of the plant using this recipe above, I also do not use filter or any media. the tank runs on Pump and co2 reactor for flow.
 
Micro'dan birinin (sağdaki resim) Tropica tabanlı klon olduğunu fark etmediyseniz. bitki bir şekilde Mikroların çok daha düşük olduğu soldaki resme kıyasla farklı tepki verdi. her ikisinin de Fe eksikliği gibi görünen bazı sorunları vardı, ancak bu sorun başka birçok faktörle ilişkili olabilir. Aynı Tropica klonu aşağıdaki tankta çok az sorunla kullanıldı:

Şu an itibariyle standardım şu (onlarla sık sık oynuyorum):
Haftalık:

Fe 0,1 (0,06 ppm Fe HEEDTA, 0,04 ppm Fe DTPA)
Min 0,067
çinko 0,014
B 0,014
Cu 0,006-0,014
Pzt 0,004

Fe DTPA, Fe HEEDTA, Mn EDTA, Zn EDTA, H3BO3, Cu EDTA, Na2MoO4*2H2O

Yukarıdaki tarifi kullanan bitkinin resmi , ayrıca filtre veya herhangi bir ortam kullanmıyorum. Tank, akış için Pompa ve CO2 reaktörü üzerinde çalışır.
Thank you my friend. So, do you use nh4 and no3 as nitrate? Do they have their ratios? I will use them all together.

Are these doses weekly?

I guess daily

These are my standard. I target N as Proxy for my Macro dose, so it could be anywhere from 1-3 ppm N weekly. However, I never feel the need to exceed the Micro dose of 0.1 ppm Fe weekly as Proxy, regardless of weather I dose 1 or 3 ppm N.

Bunlar benim standardım. Makro dozum için Proxy olarak N'yi hedefliyorum, dolayısıyla haftalık 1-3 ppm N arasında olabilir. Bununla birlikte, hava durumu ne olursa olsun, Proxy olarak haftalık 0,1 ppm Fe Mikro dozunu aşma ihtiyacını asla hissetmiyorum, hava durumuna bakılmaksızın 1 veya 3 ppm N dozu veriyorum.

Hi friend, let me ask you one more thing. Will we use ascorbic acid or potassium sorbate as a preservative or will just white vinegar be enough?

if you are using the above then the Micros/Fe and Macro solution are kept separately, I only added Potassium Sorbate. White Vinegar is fine to add along with potassium Sorbate. most of the time I no longer use Ascorbic Acid for my projects.

Yes, macro and micro will be in separate bottles, but I will use sulfate salts.

all elements will be sulfate base

Would just white vinegar be enough as a preservative? I will prepare it in a 200ml empty bottle.

Or is EDTA necessary?
