They'll melt a bit after all the travel but they should come back!

Don't you find that odd?!?
Boil a plastic bottle?!?
Do I mix it and dose it at same measurements?
Also one of the mixes I have some (can't remember who) made these labels and it says to prevent mold add the excel. Anyone else do that?

I suppose one could boil plastic baby bottles with no issues.
Mix it, let sit over night, give it a firm shake and dose 1 mL/10 gallons. That applies to the bottle with KNO3. I shake the bottles each time before dosing.
Yes, I add glut/excel to the Micros bottle.

Yep, I added excel to mine too my PPS pro kit just came in the mail 2 days ago. I didn't boil my bottles just because it seemed unnecessary (although I'm sure the plastic is durable enough) and so far so good! One thing that I had to do differently was add some extra phosphate. The instructions said 3g, but that only got me to .5 ppm, and I've been told you want it around 3-5ppm for red plants. I used an old 500ml bottle of Prime for my nitrates which works great http://i1277.photobucket.com/albums...8-359E-4D32-87F1-7226A52CED4F_zpsre2v1x6a.jpg
I'm still learning as I go but that's my experience so far

I need to get a phosphate test.
My ph is testing at 0. How do I get that up?
