    I bought a package of Lushgro Aqua 1litre liquid fertilizers (orange color) macro and micros and it came with some canisters of fertilizer salt/granules. I am running out of the liquid fertilizer.

    Are the solids a replacement for the liquid when the liquid runs out? If so what is the right dosage to mix all the solids into a fertilizer mixture? Can someone give me some directions if you know this?

    The salts are...100g each...

    KH2PO4
    K2SO4
    KNO3
    MgSO4
    NaHCO3

    Thanks.

    The solids are supplement while you are dosing LushGRO Aqua into the planted tank. Try not to dose the dry salts into the tank unless you abosolutely know what is your CO2 level and plant uptake requirement. The dry salts are quite potent especially the KNO3

    I think of all the salts you only really need :
    KH2PO4
    KNO3

    Then add your own trace as you see fit.
    The rest i find are not really needed.

    As for amount to add you can use chucks aquarium calculator. I am pretty sure this calculator can be found in the beginners section.
