Well I just finished my second water test after waiting about 24 hours after doing the second dose.
Here are the results:
Before I started dosing:
pH 7.0
Ammonia .50
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 0
Phos .05
dKH 8
dGH 10
CO2 24ppm
1st Test
pH 7.1
Ammonia .25
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 0
Phos .08
dKH 9
dGH 11
CO2 21 ppm
2nd Test
pH 7.1
Ammonia .25
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 0
Phos .09
dKH 9
dGH 11
CO2 21 ppm
As you can see not seeing much change. This is how much I am dosing:
PMDD solution - 1 ½ ml per day for 7 days (1 ½ = 1.50ppm)
Mono Potassium Phosphate - 1 ml per day for 7 days (1 ml = 0.14 ppm Phosphate)
Potassium Nitrate – 2 ½ ml per day for 7 days (1ml = 0.575 ppm Nitrate)
So my questions are:
How long until I start seeing results?
Am I dosing enough?
Just want to make sure I am doing this right.
