It's never too late! I'm gonna see how things are after a couple weeks and then get excel

You can construct it from random stuff available locally, or you can get a preprepared package from a site like Green Leaf Aquarium's package that has a pound of Nitrate and potassium, and half pounds of phosphate and micros.

I'm interested in making my own fertilizer through local means. Where can I find a list of the things to use.

Umm, off the top of my head.


Fleet Enema is a Phosphate source, not sure of the dosing requirements as it's in liquid form.
Muriate of Potash: KCl
Potash of Sulfate: K2SO4
Salt Peter or some stump removers: KNO3
Epsom Salt: MgSO4

A bottle of Flourish would be best for most micros.

Along with aqua_chem's suggestions you can also find a local hydroponics shop that may have most of this stuff and a micromix available as well.
