Trace And Iron Solution

[hogan53]

Hello plant mates

Is it possible to make a combined Trace elements and Iron solution for ease of use using RO water?
Is there a lot of Iron in the Aqua Essentials trace?Can i make a trace solution up?.
Or do you have to add separately?
Thank you all.

Well all
I suppose its down the trial and error route or if your a chemist or scientist research
as there been no responses.

Gives us chance to answer

the trace includes:
Boron 1.06%
Copper 0.23%
Iron 8.2%
Manganese 1.82%
Molybdenum 0.15%
Zinc 1.16%

So yes there will be enough iron in it, if your plants start to show a defficiency in iron then you can add more

Thanks Aaronnorth

Sorry for being a tad impatient Ive made up a solution of 3 teaspoons of trace with 300ml of RO water and there doesn't seam to be any residue left.
Therefore i'm going to add 1ml of trace solution every other day when dosing.
Thanks for the information.
