I'd like to start using a plant food, never have before after 20 years in this hobby... "AquaMaster Plant Food" any good? I just got a 500ml bottle it says add 1ml per 10-Litres ..... I have mostly Vals & a few plants with bigger leaves that are attached to drift wood ... I don't want to go the whole hog doing Co2 etc... any advice apreciated

What is your lighting situation? Tank size?

If you have a stable tank and just want to improve the look and growth of your plants, it's wise to go lightly initially and increase dosages if needed.
Answers to the above questions would help with further suggestions.
