First, I really appreciate BRS bringing me up to give the presentation. I enjoyed meeting all of you, and hope the presentation was informative.
Second, here are the initial dosing recommendations I explained in the presentation for mixed-source organic carbon dosing:
1. Mixture:
225 ml Vodka
25 ml Vinegar
1.5 tablespoons Sucrose/Glucose
2. Initial dosage:
- .1 ml/20 gallons NWV (net water volume) x3 days
- Split between AM/PM
3. Subsequent dosages:
- Days 4-7: increase dosage to .2 ml/20 gallons
- Each subsequent week add .5ml to dose (not to ratio) until NO3 and PO4 start to drop – maintain this dose
- When ULN state reached, gradually reduce to half as a maintenance dose
- Do not exceed 1.5 ml/20 gallons NWV
I recommend glucose over table sugar (sucrose). It can be found at health food stores and is usually sold as dextrose, corn sugar or grape sugar.
Hope that helps, and I will be happy to answer any questions.
