Forgot to mention, I got a couple of syringes that measure up to 5ml that I got my fiance to take home from work. Pharmacies have them and will give them free if you ask.
thanks again for doing the order and making the drop so late, was a pretty funfilled day today.
i havent felt so paranoid driving home is sooo long i didnt know what to think. kept looking in the rearview and then shoulder lanes. all i could think about was.... "here's my driver's license and insurance.........oh that, its just fertilizer for my planted aquarium".
i created 2 weeks worth in 210 ml of water (7 doses X 30ml)
1 tablespoons kno3 = 5.1 ppm nitrate / dose
1 tablespoon kno3 = 3.3 ppm potassium / dose
2 tablespoons k2so4 = 8.1 ppm potassium / dose
thats 1 table spoon potassium nitrate and 2 table spoons potassium phosephate. I also added 1/2 teaspoon of the trace.
Even after adding another 60ml of HOT water I couldn't get it to dissolve completely. I'll have to experiment with the solution to see what the best mixture and delivery method is. May end up dosing trace dry into the tank because it mixed the least.

i think im going to dose dry since i only have one tank to dose and it would keep the bottles to a minimum. im gonna go with the EI dosing chart over at apc and see if that works out for me.
