I’m currently dosing 1000ML of my kalk solution spread 24hrs. My kalk solution is 7tbsp in 5 gallons of rodi.
If I want to start carbon dosing to help manage my nitrates. I was reading online that I could add vinegar to my kalk to achieve that, I do know that the kalk will be more potent.
How should I adjust my kalk solution and how much vinegar do I put?
