liquid, but the only difference is ratios when converting to powder guaranteed analysisI have a question, Is the label guaranteed analysis for the dry powder or is it for the liquid concentrate after you add the powder to your water?
Yes, more concentrated than liquid just for a few additives where there isn't really much total ingredients. Its designed to give a better value to the customer getting more for what they pay for, also its an all organic product for that particular one. The concept of nutrient burn usually comes from too high a dosage of synthetic nutrients, but anyways its a bit complicated as it often manifests in nutrient deficiencies. Finally, the correct dosage of the product should raise ppm 100-200 (EC .2-.4). Considering its dry nutrients, its difficult to get 'hot spots' with ppm anomalies, so I really am not sure what happened if you said it raised your EC 1 point. If this is true, then the product is even 4x the concentration value so its a better deal, 1 package would make 2000Liters for $13? Sounds like a really good deal. This isn't backed up by evidence maybe you could email your order # to customer service and they could work out you a refund or product exchange. Why don't you do this?This doesn't make sense. Your saying that the powder is more concentrated than the liquid stuff? Hard to argue that one... Or are you saying that your dilution instructions aren't accurate and this is why it was so salty? Like I said, it was a very small dose. It pushed the EC quite a bit.
What I'm saying is I mixed it by weight, so your response is moot.
If you have a PPM/EC meter, the best way to measure nutrients is using those tools, that goes for liquid nutrients as well. I normally ignore manufacturer recommended doses anyways when using most brands.
Like I said dramamine, dont waste your time or breath. This cat thinks he knows more than anyone else and we are all just idiots....ROFL!! Clearly he does not even have a BASIC understanding....AT ALL!! He certainly does not even have a clue what carbonates or bicarbonates are or there function. But I am sure he will be glad to fill us in with his EXPERT knowledge...ROFL!!
I am glad this guy thinks I am a nice person now....LOL!! Before he posted I had some characters flaws...LOL!!
You still haven't answered your question, you claim that magical and botanicare cal mag plus are both quality cal mag products because they have bicarbonates, yet neither product has it listed in guaranteed analysis.
I also don't think I know more than everyone else, many people on this forum have exceptional knowledge about nutrients, and most of them use their own custom blends. If you would read a few threads you would find that out BioMaster.
Also, I don't think that you are ALL idiots as you claimed, I just took issue with you in specific (don't group yourself with other posters here as you represent yourself only). In fact you are the only person who I have heard claim the things you have and I haven't heard anyone agree with you on these claims such as "nutrients aren't just salts mixed together". It seems like you get most of your information from retailers or manufacturers selling you nutrients or products, such as "Chris at Veg+Bloom told me so and so," when you realize that someone selling you products isn't the best person to take advice from I think you will have reached a good turning point. Do your own research and think for yourself.
