micro and macro dosage

How did you make the recipe? Which chemicals, grams etc. Used? Just wanted to double check everything.
For a 75 liter tank, I give the dose of mnso4=258 mg Znso4=77mg H3bo3=100mg Cuso4=69 mg in 250 ml of water as 5 ml 3 times a week. 5ml white vinegar 0.1g potassium sorbate.

Salt for RO water enrichment contains minerals that increase the resistance of plants after rapid changes in conditions in the tank. It stimulates water parameters and faster regeneration of plants due to displacement of plants, pruning. It contains all the minerals necessary for fresh water and growing plants. AF Mineral Salt is very low in water It perfectly prevents diseases caused by its mineral content. The formula does not contain sodium, which can inhibit healthy plant development. 10 g of AF Mineral Salt in 100 liters of water rises to the following levels: GH: 3 KH: 2 K: 6 mg / l Ca: 6.5 mg / l Mg: 4.1 mg / l Mn: 1.16 micro / l

HOW TO USE:

10 g per 100 liters of RO water used in plant cultivation, 8 g per 100 liters of RO water. Keep away from children! The product is for use in aquariums only! Not suitable for consumptionView attachment 216384

Above Product:

GH: 3
KH: 2
K: 6
Ca: 6.5
Mg: 4.1
Mn 0.00116

I would Recommend using Caso4/Cacl, MgSo4 and K2so4/KhCo3 with following ratio:

Ca 10
Mg 3
K 1

For a 75 liter tank, I give the dose of mnso4=258 mg Znso4=77mg H3bo3=100mg Cuso4=69 mg in 250 ml of water as 5 ml 3 times a week. 5ml white vinegar 0.1g potassium sorbate.

Mn 0.02236
Zn 0.00467 (if ZnSO4*7H2O was used)
Zn 0.00737 (if Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate 35.5% was used)
B 0.00466
Cu 0.00468 (I would cut this in half to 0.00234)

Mn 0.067
Zn 0.014 (if ZnSO4*7H2O was used)
Zn 0.022 (if Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate 35.5% was used)
B 0.014
Cu 0.014 (cut in half to 0.007)

My concerns is how did you accurately measure such low amount on the scale? can you also confirm which Zinc sulfate you used?

I used 5 ml 0.001 precision scales 3 times a week.

even with that precision, I wouldn't recommend it. give me few minutes and let me make something for you, which would be better option.

anyway, you do indeed have the wrong Zinc selected for your recipe. what you have is the "Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate 35.5% "

Dude, I have solved everything now. I made a mistake in Rotalabutterfly. I should have chosen zinc sulfate monohydrate. I chose znso4.😯
 
bu hassasiyete rağmen bunu tavsiye etmem. bana birkaç dakika ver ve senin için bir şeyler yapmama izin ver, bu daha iyi bir seçenek olur.

her neyse, gerçekten de tarifiniz için yanlış Çinko seçmişsiniz. sahip olduğunuz şey "Çinko Sülfat Monohidrat %35,5"
@Happi ok buddy i will wait for you

remind me again what DTPA Fe you have/ 11% ? and you are targeting 0.1 ppm Fe?

her şekilde, gerçekten tarifiniz için yanlış Çinko'yu seçmişsiniz. sahip olabileceğiniz şey "Çinko Sülfat Monohidrat %35,5"

Ca 10
Mg 3
K 1
5 ppm caso4/ 5 ppm Cacl mgso4 3ppm k2so4 0.05ppm khco3 0.05ppm like this? Or (caso4=10 mgso4=3 k2so4=1ppm)?
 
@hasan66

250 ml solution #1
start with 200 ml distilled water and then add the following:


add 0.1g potassium sorbate
add 5ml white vinegar
add 2.58 gram MnSO4*H2O
add 0.5 gram Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate 35.5%
add 1 gram H3BO3
add 0.345 gram CuSO4*5H2O
add 0.1 gram Na2MoO4*2H2O

once fully dissolved, add more distilled water to reach the solution to 250 ml


250 ml solution #2
start with 200 ml (or little less) distilled water and then add the following:

add 0.1g potassium sorbate
add 5ml white vinegar
add 1.071 gram Fe DTPA 7%
add 0.208 gram EDDHA Fe 6%
add 0.625 gram EDTA Fe 6%
add 25 ml from solution #1

once fully dissolved, add more distilled water to reach the solution to 250 ml


Dose 5 ml from solution #2 into 75 liter, which will give you the following ppm:


Fe 0.0333
Mn 0.02236
Zn 0.00467
B 0.00466
Cu 0.00234
Mo 0.001

3x weekly dose:
Fe 0.1
Mn 0.067
Zn 0.014
B 0.014
Cu 0.007
Mo 0.003

I usually don't go lower than 0.2 gram due to errors in accuracy but you can try.

Thank you very much🙏🙏🙏🤌🤌
 
250 ml çözelti #1,
200 ml damıtılmış su ile başlayın ve ardından aşağıdakileri ekleyin:


0,1 g potasyum sorbat ekleyin
5 ml beyaz sirke
ekleyin 2,58 gram MnSO4*H2O
ekleyin 0,5 gram Çinko Sülfat Monohidrat %35,5
ekleyin 1 gram H3BO3
ekleyin 0,345 gram CuSO4 ekleyin *5H2O
, 0,1 gram Na2MoO4*2H2O
How did you do this? I still haven't figured it out. In fact, I need to learn. For example, if I had done this for a 150 liter tank, how would I have done it? Is it done with very detailed calculations?
 
I set it to 6%, no problem.
correction made to add 0.625 gram EDTA Fe 6%

updated the recipe to 6% EDTA Fe , I have never seen the 6% EDTA here in the USA, most common one is 13%

anyway, DTPA 11% is better than the DTPA 7% because it also lower the PH to significant number. you can try to get that in the future.

Unfortunately, there is no 11% dtpa in my country, so I have to use 7% dtpa.

which part? I use mathematic to calculate everything, some people use Rotala Butterfly calculator and some people use IFC Aquarium Fertilizer Calculator
For example, if I had done this for a 150 liter tank, how would I have done it? Is it done with very detailed calculations?
this one is simple 75x2 = 150 you just double the grams in those recipes and get the same ppm.
