I have read everything I can find. I have the grams printed out , I know to use the
1 liter bottle
59 grams K2SO4
65 grams KNO3
6 grams KH2P04
it says 41 grams MgSO4 *( I dont have any )
fill with distilled water, and this is 1 ML per 10 gallon
ok, I get this , my problem is I have tried every scale I can get my hands on, *( other than buying a 20-30 & scale ) and I cant get the right amount in the bottle .
I know each fert weighs differnt , or I would just use the teaspoon =5 grams +3teaspoons is a tablespoon . so 5 tablespoons would be 50 grams ....... I was doing it this way when I ran into my probelm . my scale is NOT working . I was trying to see how much weight EACH fert , *(3) in a teaspoon OR tablespoon weighed, so I could know' how many to add to my bottle . *(PLEASE HELP)
I have a 55, 45, 20, 10 , 5.5 gallons to dose , so the PPS seems like the best for me , 1ML for 10 gallons , is ALOT easier than 1/32 and remebering to dose each diff small amount in each tank .
SO what I am asking ,
WILL ANYONE, SOMEONE TELL ME THE GRAMS IN TEASPOON, OF EACH OF THE 3 FERTS I HAVE
EXP. 59 GRAMS K2SO4 (say 60) = ?? __ teaspoons ???
65 grams KN03 = ?? __ teaspoons ????
6 grams KH2P04 = ?? __ teaspoon ??
ALSO please let me know in the OTHER liter bottle HOW much CSM&B to add, in teaspoons ??
right now I have a EI version in the fridge I have been dosing with, is that the same strength , or more than PPS ?
Can ANYONE please just give me these #'s from thier scale ? PLEASE ~
I have read hours & hours of threads, post , help ads, articles, and I have got way to specific before, now I am on the easier train, But unless I am just missing somthing here, I need these #'s , It would be easy IF they all weighed the same . They do not . So I got stuck on the 2nd fert, went to add into my bottle and wanted to test' the scale half tablespoons in *(3) and I got my end result as of grams , not 30 somthing but already up into the 60's where I still needed 3 tablespoons to be soposedly !!!!!! AARRGGHH~~~~ so if anyone could please just answer that simple question ,
simple IF YOU HAVE THE SCALE ............... I could start my dosing today .
I have dosed dry for a week or so , it is showing a improvement but like I metioned is very hard to do with 5-6 tanks to dose . All differnt sizes. sorry to write a book, but I want the (go search ) people to understand I have searched my head off, and the only one thread I found that gives a teaspoon mearuement was on CSM&B< I have already mixed that as EI , and its in the fridge, *( thinking of that , I will most likely need the PPS version of that measured out in a spoon per liter as well ..................... any and all help would be appreciated . sorry for typos, and the length ....LOL
and as the title says
I DO NOT KNOW YET THE DIFFERNCE, OR REALLY WHAT IS
PPS, PPSPRO, PPS CLASSIC..
I HAVE READ lots of info, but am still not sure of the differance of each , any link that IS truly helpful to me with that info would be greatly appreciated too .
not to confuse anyone more than I already have , But I was also thinking , ok if I dosed as wolfenexx says to for a 20/40 gallon tank , I could add that by 3X"S a week that would make weekly bottles, BUT I would have to have 5 bottles for 5 tanks, and I DO NOT KNOW HOW MUCH TO DOSE, OTHER THAN A 3RD OF THE BOTTLE ... LOL )
This is why I chose PPS < still do not know ALL the varances, But have found this one, and I belive it will work, I can always add later, when my plants look like they need somthing more, I can test for nitrate, nothing else , and I have read from rex grigg himself that you dont HAVE to test, but it is nice to . I dont have the extra $$ right now, so I will just have to skip the luxary .
I give thanxs to any and ALL that can help me . Please use your scales you bought to measure YOUR ferts, as I have read where cooking scales & etc, are OFF . you know the .... scale . I may PM and bug a few people I see as experts in the forums on this subject and direct them here, as I need all the help I can get . LOL
