Nitrate Recipe

[hadams356]

Hey Randy
What happened to the Nitrate recipe, I can't find it anywhere. Was it removed? I can find recipes for everything else. Using Calcium Nitrate from Loudwolf and need to dose nitrates every couple of weeks to maintain a reading of 2.5.

I’d use this calculator and the entry for nitrate from potassium nitrate. It will be close enough for a starter dose, then adjust as needed.
