Re: Plant Problems Issue#448



Michael - I noticed I made an error below (I missed
the per drop comment), your water is not that soft.

I used the test kit, and tested the KH and it gave me
the following results:
6 Drops gave me the end result color the Manual says
it is 1dKH or 17.9ppm
Per drop so that should give me approx 107.4 ppm KH.

I also tested the GH and it gave me the following
results:
15 Drops gave me the end result color the Manual says
it is 1dGH or 17.9ppm
Per drop so that should give me approx 268.5 ppm GH

The GH compared to the KH is so different can someone
explain why?

This is not true your water sounds just about right. 
If this is non-peat treated water then you shouldn't
waste your time peat treating the water unless you
have discus (and even then it might be ok).
