chelating vinegar
Is there a way to chelate a carbon source for slow-release purposes? E.g. gelatine.. agar.. I was wondering if anyone attempted doing this.
What would be most suitable? Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G930F met Tapatalk |

That's what bio-pellets are. Do you want a DIY approach?
Chelating refers to attaching a metal to an organic, technically.

I think there are formula around for DIY bio-pellets. I'll take a look. This post has some information:

That sounds like an interesting idea. I'd be careful with the amount in the system, though, and ramp up very slowly.
