EI dosing method and liquid carbon

[Philly33]

Can I use the EI dry fert method with only liguid carbon? Slowly going to make the jump to pressurized co2 this winter.

Yes you can. I am using it with DIY CO2 with glutaraldehyde until I can get a pressurized system together.

Yes you can but remember that higher light, higher bio-load, and the amount of plants along with how many are fast growing all cause the need for a higher dose liquid carbon.

The recommended EI dosages are calculated assuming CO2. I would recommend using the low light weekly EI dosage recommended on this site:

Aqua- I'm not seeing a low light amount.

 

[aqua_chem]

It's called EI low light/weekly.
