What root tabs should iuse? api root tabs? that's all my LFS has...
These are great root tabs made by yours truly with a blend of N P K and CSM+B (that's macros + micros) held together by a very high quality completely raw carbondale red clay (really high in iron).
The rough ingredient percentages are as follows
Clay- 48%
CSM+B 32%
Magnesium Sulfate 8%
Potassium Sulfate 8%
Potassium Nitrate 4%
jetajockey said:I reapply mine every month, but it really depends on how densely planted the tank is and the type of root tab you are using. The kind I use are clay based so they are used up pretty quickly, but if you use something like osmocote it is designed to release slowly over a 6 month period.
I prefer the clay based tabs though personally.
