Fertilizer

[Matty24]

Hello guys, so I've a 34 gallon tank, 14 varietys of easy grow plants within it running co2 injections but im trying to balance the fertilizer (seachem flourish is what I have) seachems says 5ml a week twice a week if needed, my question is if I'm doing 5ml a week am I for instance best dosing the full 5ml on a Monday and doing a weekly water at the end of the week if needed or breaking the dosage into a 7 day programme, at the minute I am doing a small daily dosage but any advice is appreciated

I find daily dosing is better. Its all a balancing act, lighting, ferts and co2. Algae will guide you!

The fertilizer is based on the plants within the tank I'm guessing I'm new to this all so I'm just trying to work out what's best for the long term and keeping my plants healthy

The dosage on the bottle is usually not anticipating Co2 injection. With Co2 the plants will want to grow faster so need more light and ferts. I would recommend daily dosing probably 1-2ml a day.
