Chuck's Nutrirnt Calculator

[simonbrown403]

I,ve been talking to a friend on the net and we seam to be coming up with difrent numbers for the same thing, can you spare little time to check them with your calculator and let us know if you get the same.

acording to mine:

215grams of K2SO4 + 2ltr of r/o = 0.5ppm per ml of solution

314grams of KNO3 + 2ltr of r/o = 1ppm per ml of solution

275grams of KH2PO4 + 2ltr of r/o = 1ppm per ml of solution

This is in a 200ltr tank and to be desolved in 2000ml of water.

Thanks for your time

Hiya simon

On my calculations i come up with this

215 grams of k2SO4 mixed with 2000ml water will give you 024ppm of K per ml of this solution

314 grams of kNO3 mixed with 2000ml water will give you 0.48ppm of no3 per ml of this solution

275 grams of kH2PO4 mixed with 2000ml water will give you 0.48ppm of po4 per ml of this solution

Thats weired i did the calculations with the above and got that reading, i,ve just done it again and got he same as you, i think i might recheck the calculations i did for my own mix, just to be sure.

thanks

Are you using the downloaded Windows program or the web-based version - I wonder if there's any differences?

Downloadable one geoage.
I,m getting a little worred now, i,m begining to think that this is the carse of my algue. can you check these for me someone.

This is for a 96ltr tank.

POTASSIUM NITRATE (KNO3)

250 grams mixed in 1590ml of R/O water = 1ppm per 1ml of the solution.


MONO POTASSIUM PHOSPHATE (KH2PO4)

250 grams mixed in 1815ml of R/O water = 1ppm per 1ml of the solution.


POTASSIUM SULFATE (K2SO4)

106 grams mixed in 1000ml of R/O water = 0.5ppm per 1ml of the solution.

Those calculations look correct. I punched the numbers into the calculator and came out with the same results...

 

[simonbrown403]

Thats strange, i wonder why it's coming out with the right numbers for my tank but difrent for some one elses, i changes the default settings?

ired, welcome to the twilight zone

Double check. You did something wrong.

Those results are definitely correct.
