I don't use calculator 100ml then checkHaving read through everything here, I'm giving it a go. My calcium is 460, Mg 1320 but alkalinity os only 6.2. So alkalinity is my target to balance up. I've made some of the alkalinity mix and to target a dKh of 8, the calculator says I need 226mLs to start with.
My two questions are this.
1. Do I dose the first 226mLs over a 24 hour period to get the level back to target range?
2. Do I then retest again in a couple of days and recalculate my daily dose (of all three requirements) and just dose top up amounts each day thereafter?
Thanks heaps for the info.
You don't really want to increase Alk by any more that 1dkh in a 24 hr period. So I would add it over the next few days. Or calculate what 1 dkh dose is and do half in morning half at night to stop such huge swings. Do that until you reach your target.Having read through everything here, I'm giving it a go.

. Lee at something fishy or m+ sell 1kg packets of each. That 1kg makes 8ltr cal & Alk & 4ltr of mag. If I can do it you you can that's for sure ! LolSam I am lazy and would love some of that action but I'm in Adelaide. Can i ask any Adelaidians are they interested in getting something like that up and running or does anyone already have a heap made up that is just waiting for me to purchase?[/QUOTE.
