What one dose does
PARAMETER
1 g / 100 L
Alkalinity
+0.3321 dKH
To raise alkalinity by 1 dKH in 100 L: 3 g.
How it’s used
Dissolve 2 g in 8 oz (236 ml) RO water per 20 US gal and add in high flow once a day until KH and pH are reached, then dose to consumption (0.114 g per gal per dKH). Dose at least 30 min apart from calcium.
Cautions
• Wait at least 30 min after calcium/mineral additions (alternate days better)
• Strongly alkaline
