Hello people,
I have read about PMDD and I am now ready to make my own. The thing is I have the stuff to do my mixture but they are not as suggested on the net. I intend to be dosing for a planted aquarium with no fish at all so if someone could suggest different amounts of the mixing elements please do so! Here is what I have:
1. K2SO4 This is just fine
2. KNO3 This is just fine
3. Microplex for chelated trace mix but contains the following
N 10% (5% ammonium + 5% nitrite)
Fe 1%
Zn 2.5%
Mn 1%
Cu 0.1%
Co 0.02%
Mo 0.005%
The trace elements are in the EDTA form (don't know what is means)
4. MgSO4 but as salt, not in the hydrated form. How do I convert it into the hydrated form?
5. I have no Boric Acid!
So from the above what do you suggest?
Also by 1 tablespoon is it meant a full topped up tablespoon or a level tablespoon?
