    Hi all,

    Bought the above from LFS few days ago, had been following the dosage on the label. But still unsure about it.

    The label state 10g/100L every week, so I have to dose around 80g of Potassium to my 850L of water? Which means I will finished the 1kg of Potassium in around 12 weeks time.

    Regards,
    Ct

    Use this http://www.csd.net/~cgadd/aqua/art_p...osage_calc.htm to calculate your dosage requirement. 10g in 100L seems too high for me.

    your are overdossing it, 10 grams in 100 liters give you 44.87 ppm of K+ based on the fertilator link below.

    http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/f...fertilator.php

    For your tank with 850 liters, you might want to dose 30 grams, which will give you 15.84ppm of K+

    Your K+ target is should be within 10 to 30ppm

    About 2 grams or around 0.3 teaspoon. Not sure how you gona measure that

    For small thank I suggest use the chuck's calculater, dilute the K2SO4 with some amount of water and does few ml each.
