:yes:

different fertilizers have different weights.
so, 1 tsp of flora nova bloom, may weight more, or less than 5 g... but still be 5 ml by volume... in 1 tsp.

also, the net weights on some fertilizers change, from batch to batch, which may affect the total content of the final solution. even if use 1 tsp (~5 ml), or 1 tbsp (~15 ml)...

How bout some maybe gram conversion help. Whats the equivalent number for let's say 8 grams per liter which would be what in tsp. I know u said 1 g = 1 ml. So that's 8ml equivelent to 3/4 TSP. Somethin like that. Would that be right

Yeah that's what I did to get those numbers. It's funny cuz i always confuse the ISH out of myself for no reason. Kinda the same issue back in the day when I was trying to measur out some powder Bud Blood and BiG BuD or whateve So yeah I just wanted to make sure if my above calculations were somewhat in the right direction. Just want to be perfect cuz some of these powders have completely crazy labels as far. I'll post up the label for the fun of it and well see. And + rep for u always. U deserve it


Edit. - ok I got.Figured it and wrote it down this time. It thanks bro.

thanks biatchzxz, it's as close to perfect as anything i have found. Every compound will have a slightly different density, but don't think you'll ever be to far out at all with these conversions.
Everything is general but this is pretty good info, i have been looking and many have been backed up elsewhere
Conversions

1 TSP = 5 ml
1 oz = 30 ml
1 Cup = 8 oz
1 Pint = 16 oz
1 Quart = 32 oz
1 Gal = 128 oz
1 Liter = 1000 ml
this is from the GH website
if you use GH products this is an awesome nutrient calculator, good becuase it shows nut's for seedling, transition, blooom and ripen stages http://www.genhydro.com/calculator/index.html cool to play with

Thanks dude. But we already clarified that i was refering to Powder Gram measurments to Tsp but I pretty much figure it out. I belive a 1.25 grams was equiv to 1/4 tsp if I'm not confusing it

I am 1st time trying MB on my next grow.I understand well enough i hope, i got the idea of using 7 gram tsp's. but on the conversion chart stickied by evl2me. i am a little fuzzy how that chart applies to the hanna combo pen ph,ec,temp 98129. on these pens the conv. factor is chosen by you or me.I have read that .05 is the american version? in a few posted threads. i look at that chart posted and wonder should i have my meter set to .05 for the american version. Is the conv .05 used Most?
 
I need some help.I have a buddy here who says that using a salt water salution to flush your plants is ok> I say thats nuts can anyone tell me if they have heard of this.
