Help What is going on with my SN test strips

[Ecka-26]

Two different kind of SN one is nitrite and the other one is nitrate

Did you measure the water and the SN you mixed or just random amounts?

I only measure the nitrite but I used just 6grams and just put a little bit of water just to mix it and the nitrate was 30 grams and again i just put in the water so I can mix it and just check for the results, sorry if I don't make sense I'm a bit scattered my mind is everywhere.

The test strips only measure to 10mg/L for the nitrite, so it's not useful at all in terms of telling you the concentration or purity of your SN, just that it does contain at least a small amount of SN.

6 grams is way too much for this strips.

Follow this guide, you'll need a good scale though.

Why do you even test the sodium nitrate? You shouldn't use it to ctb.

If you mix a solution that should have 10mg/L and the test confirms it, you'll know it's pure.

Yeah you need to dilute your solution with a whole liter (I. e. A pint) of water to get an accurate result.

Ok I will do that, I'll retest it w 10mg and see if that makes a difference. But the Nitrite the first picture my SN came in really clumpy even before I opened it I had to smash it down to powder, do you think w it being clumpy it's making a difference?

You need to follow it step by step to get a good result.

Clumping is normal with SN, there is a member however that has failed with the SN you have, but it's not clear if the SN was bad or not.

I actually read about this product after I bought it and like you said some members have said it's not really a reliable source. That's why I'm trying to test it w the strips, also Thank You for sharing your knowledge w me w how to go about testing the product I really appreciate your help. Do you think the 2nd source is reliable even though it's nitrate?

Yes, but nitrate won't do the job.

Can you pm me when you get a chance?

Ok, do me a favour and follow the instructions by the T on how to run this test. Not more or less. Exact amounts.

This is directly from the Peaceful Pill Handbook:

You'll need:
- 5 g SN measured by electronic scale
- 2 ml disposable pipette
- 2 bottles 1 litre each of distilled water
- a small yoghurt container, clean (or similar)

Now:
- Weigh out EXACTLY 5g
- Combine with 10-20 ml water from one of the bottles.
- Use the yoghurt container for mixing until dissolved.
- return the mixture to the 1 l bottle, close and shake well.
- now extract exactly 2 ml from that mixture using the pipette and add it to the second bottle of distilled water.
- Close. Shake well.
- NOW use the dip stick and wait 30 sec

Compare the colour of the stick to the values shown for "10mg/litre"

The bottle literally says sodium nitrAte

The test strips only measure to 10mg/L for the nitrite, so it's not useful at all in terms of telling you the concentration or purity of your SN, just that it does contain at least a small amount of SN.

So I have been looking over this forum about using SN and water with specific amounts to test the purity or concentration of the compound, but you state that the OP strips are not good to test for purity/concentration.

This leaves me confused. Can we actually test for purity or concentration of the SN using a known amount of SN in measured amounts of 2 different bottles of water? I thought that the example posted in this thread was called an "aquarium test" or some modified version of it as the ppeh does. I have seen strips that have only ppm and not mg/L and ones that have both

So, is it worth doing this test for purity testing? Also, are there particular types of strips to use which have the appropriate units on them? I saw a very detailed post with several examples of differing amounts of SN and water. I don't want to CTB if mine is not good enough despite it saying 99% pure.

Thx

I don't fully understand how to determine purity or concentration by this method. I've seen other posts which are similar to the ppeh with a slight variation. You state take 10 to 20ml of water and mix with SN. Why an arbitrary amount of water? I see that the procedure calls for returning it to bottle number 1. So, in my mind, if there was 1 litre in bottle 1, then you have 5g/L. Then you say to take 2 ml from bottle 1 and transfer to bottle 2 which has 1L. So, would you not want to take 2 ml out of bottle 2 before adding the 2 ml from bottle 1 to keep the volume of bottle 2 the same? Also, extraction of the 2 ml would supposedly contain 5 mg per litre, so would bottle 2 then contain 5 mg per 2L? I'm sorry if I don't follow the logic in this procedure and would really appreciate you helping me understand it better. It seems a little different than the other "aquarium" tests I've read so far on the forum. Is this a true aquarium test ot just a modified one?

Thx

Since you return the 10-20ml to bottle 1 it doesn't matter how much you take out because it goes back in the same bottle.

The next step when 2 ml are added to 1000ml (1 liter) is simply a drop in the ocean. Yes you could first take 2 ml out of bottle 2 but for this to work it really makes no difference.

You have the wrong stuff

Wrong person sorry. Op has the wrong stuff.
Wait nevermind they have both nitrite and nitrate

No worries.
