Well I think I have everything figured out. I have my 55 gallon planted full from front to back with stems and the middle that was still open has glosso spread over it till it really grows in. Ive got about 200 watts CF lighting over the tank and pressurized CO2. My dosing is as follow:

KNO3 250ml water mix with 1 tablespoons/ 3 teaspoons dose 10ml 3 times a week 1 ml adds .22ppm

KH2PO4 250ml water mix with 1 teaspoons dose 5ml 3 times a week

K2SO4 250ml water mix with 1 tablespoons/ 3 teaspoons dose 30ml 3 times a week

Plantex CSM+B 250ml water mix with 1 tablespoon/ 3 teaspoons and dose 40ml 3 times a week


So I would be dosing 6 days a week with one off day. Im pretty sure this might just work, but does anyone see any flaw in my dosing scheme?

Have you considered using PPS-Pro or Liquid/Daily EI? Both methods provide a formula for mixing together macros to be administered on a daily basis.

Separately dosing macros gets old really fast, you could mix together the NPK solutions and then dose that 45ml 3X weekly. I didn't check to see what ppm you were adding, but I'm sure you worked out the levels you want. I do something similar for my autodosing, I have a very concentrated solution of N & P that is dispensed. I then flush a solution of K through between doses of that and my micros.

EI dosing is 6 days weekly with one off, so if that is the program you're following that is correct. Macros on Tuesday, Thursday & Sunday. Micros on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Rest on Saturday, water change on Sunday. I dose my third macro on Saturday, as the time Sunday to do the water change fluctuates.

Im looking thru all the PPS-Pro threads now. Looks like this would be much simpler.
