Measuring nutrients

I am new to this so this may seem like a stupid question. How the hell do you measure 3.06tsp. I cannot out how to measure the .06. Sounds elementary but please help don't want to fuck my plants up.

Are you trying to be a cock smoker? I said I was new to this and I said this might sound like a stupid question. So what's your problem with your smart ass remarks boy?
Chill out. I don’t think he intended to offend you. Not to piss you off, but if you don’t have thicker skin than that, you won’t last long here. So, try to take shit with a grain of salt.
 
I would personally just try to get as close to an extra half a tsp as possible and go with it, I'm a noob myself though From what I do know it's better to go under than over, it's easier to add than remove.

I measure my Dry nutes bu the gram, and if I', under or over by .10 grams it doesn't matter. It's such a small amount it does not matter. I think .06 tsp equals a half of drop from an eye dropper if you really want to measure.

You can convert tsp to ml/cc
If you want to use a graduated syringe. (still wont be an even number in this instance)
Plus the shit I use is full of clumps so I just get close and check ppm

But yeah, its not a big deal in this case

Wait, are we working with a solid or a liquid?
Now Im pissed

Your ppm measurement after mixing is the gold standard. Easy to dilute if it is hotter than desired.

I just assumed dry nutes because if not then the question should be why are you measuring liquids with a tsp and not milliliters/liters anyways

Do you use organics? I use Roots Organics, both the Dry Nutrients Player Pack and the 5mL Master Pack.

the salt shakers are full of dessicant beads, keeps everything nice and dry.
i used to use a scale, but i've used it so long now i just use measuring spoons and check my ppm to make sure i didn't screw up

Looks good - quick question ... Do they ship in a box at that size or padded shipping bag ?

I got like 8 " freebie " bags from them ( surprised they kept sending them ) .
And was wondering if bigger bag is shipped carefully.
