Frequency of dosage..

[ahdi]

I juz bought the LUSHGro-Starter Kit which includes:

1) LGA
2) LGM
3) KH2PO4
4) K2SO4
5) KNO3
6) MgSO4
7) NaHCO3

They did indicate the amt to add /litre of water. But how often to dose? Anyone can advise?

U can dose the Aqua, Micros at once or twice a week. U have to trial n error to know wat's best for your tank.

Powdered ones will have to depend on the problem of deficiency you're facing.

K2SO4 -> ??
KNO3 -> ??
MgSO4 -> ??
NaHCO3 -> ??

It would be best to give your tank parameters in order for folks to help you better. There is no one for all type of dosing as each tank's bioload, plant mass, plant type and intensity of lighting is different.
