Use 7%

SWiSD wouldn't even attempt to purchase I2 crystals as long as 7% is available. Go to a farm and feed store. Around $60.00 a gal., U.S.



What do you mean, my pupils look dilated?

Title: A hint or two.
Post by: terbium on August 05, 2002, 07:19:00 AM
I will give you two hints:

1) 7% iodine solution contains also iodide equal to 50% of the amount of iodine so a 7% iodine solution is actually about 10% available iodine.

2) A gallon of this solution will weigh about 4,000 grams.
