DIY - Root Tabs

No, just use distilled water to mix it. There is already plenty of iron in the RedArt clay. There's a site that actually listed all of the ingredients found in RedArt Cedar Heights clay and it had a good amount of iron in it. If I find it again, I'll link it here.
Could you use regular tap water to mix since you won't use much water or does it need to be ro water or distilled?
I was just thinking, wouldn't some agar-agar, gelatin, or cornstarch, used as a binder, be better?
I THINK terra cotta is red pottery clay.
The reason for using the red clay is because of its iron content.
The clay itself is also a nutrient for the plants.
I have had these in my tank for about a month, and am totally impressed.
Thanks for the recipie Riiz!
