The EI dosing kit comes with all the macro dry salts and a micro salt mix too. You get two dosing bottles included.
Most people buy a third bottle and use it to mix the nitrate into. A lot of tanks dont need the nitrate dosed as the fish waste provides enough through the cycling process. I never dose my tank with nitrates.
As for the calculator i am unsure. I would think youd at least want to half the dosing if not more for a low tech setup

I'd recommend removing the rockwool from around the roots on your..all plants should do well in a low - tech setup...
Getcha feet wet fish tank people!
Not entirely true. Theres no way dwarf baby tears will do well in low tech

Is much magnesium sulphate needed? I've cut back on nitrate dosing as the tank was supplying more than I thought. Also don't dose phosphate as the tank had been supplying plenty plus DIY substrate tabs (may have to get some soon though).
