Default Have I understood PPS-PRO Correctly ?

Well I have read all the stickies and researched a fair bit, and this is what I have concluded for my regime.

Macros -
K2SO4 – Potassium sulphate
KNO3 – Potassium Nitrate
KH2PO4 – Potassium Phosphate.
MGSO4 – Magnesium Sulphate.
Having a hard time finding this in Aus.

Mixed together according to the chart designed by Edward. and doesed 1ml / 10g
According to my Calculations a 500ml solution at 2ml per day (20gal tank) should last 250 days.
Does that sound right? will it even keep for that long?


as for Micros, i am planning on using a liquid mixture (containing Mn, Fe, Zn, Cu, B and Mo) here in Australia, or i may buy some of the csm + b you Americans are so keen on. And dose according to label.

----------
On a quick seperate note, this is a liquid fertiliser in Australia's ingredients, the way i read it they have added micros and macros in one solution, I was under the impression this was a big no no ??
Quote:
50gm SOLUBLE CHELATED TRACE ELEMENT
(Fe, Zn, Mn, B, Cu, Mo)
250 gm POTASSIUM SULPHATE (K2SO4)
250 gm MAGNESIUM SULPHATE (MGSO4.7H2O
125 gm POTASSIUM NITRATE (KNO3)
25 ml HYDROCHLORIC ACID (HCl) (optional as preservative)
swimming pool strength (350g per litre)
3 litres WATER (demineralised H2O)
---------

I will also be dosing excel until the 500ml bottle runs out.

Will all this plus injected co2 produce some nice healthy plants?

Do any other ferts need to be added?


All comments Greatly appreciated.
