Hi,

i got my ICP test result. I am dosing FM balling light, but mostly just KH as Ca doesn’t drop. Also adding Organic, Amin and Min S. My microelements are low and i wonder ifI could add Color Elements which have a combination of all required elements instead of dosing one by one. Here is my icp, please advise.
Thank you

Hi Natty

Your results look pretty good, I wouldn't change too much. Maybe tasing trace element 3 by 20% to get your boron,Iodine and potassium a bit higher

how much Organic are you dosing?

Hi Corey,

thank you for your reply. I am dosing 2 ml of Organics every day, amino 2 ml and mins 1 ml. I do 10% water change weekly.
When you say add 20% or trace 3 you mean I add it to my KH solution? And what about Fe, Ni, Cr and Co? Should I top them and let them be until I do another ICP? I plan on doing ICP every month or two.

Thank you
Natasa

With the 20% increase I mean in the KH solution. Ni would be good to dose separately.

Thank you Corey. I already added 20% to KH and will top off Ni. Do you have any comments on my Organics, MinS and Amino dosing amounts?
