Yes, You can add up to 10% of the Trace K to the Balling A solution, and up to 10% of the Trace A to the Balling B solution. Then you are adding the Trace elements along with the Balling solutions without any additinal dosers.

So the 10% limit is because at higher ratio bad things happen or at 10% too many elements are added?

Just curious…

My approach usually is to try how much is needed and not always I also try how much can be added. :)

It is the concentration we have tested. If your ICP lab says "add more or these elements" most likely it will not hurt to try a higher dosage and see whether results improve. If the results with higher concentrations are not better, it makes no sense to dose the higher dosage.
