over the last week of so ive been trying to see how much water im going through on my ATO. it was about 2g~3g perday. doesing at 1tsp per gallon i was getting 450ppm cal and 10Dkh. so i dropped it to
0.75 tsb per gallon.
my question is, using the above container (for arguments sakes 1g) would i still try to dose the above amount (3g worth of kalk) in 1g of water or continue to dose 0.74 tps per gallon? or is a dripper something that should be continually dripped 24/7?
if its the, (0.75 x 3 = 2.25tps. mixed into the 1g for the dripper) is used would i need to add vinegar to help the mixture? since 2tps is the max per gallon or precipitation happens.
i understand that the amount of vinegar used is quite small in this case. but what if i wanted to increases that vinegar does? akin to carbon doseing?
so kind of a 2-in-1 thing, would this work? what kind of problems would this cause?
thanks again guys
