Need help from the Math Whiz's... conversions...

1.8 grams won't convert into teaspoons?

I tried looking it up online and it said 1.8 grams = 0.379 teaspoons. What the heck do I do with .3 of a teaspoon... hey isn't that what CowGirlMama said originally!!!


So I could use 1 full teaspoon for every 3 gallons of water, right?

Generally speaking, you are giving vitamins and probiotic, so it really isn't supercritical to be accurate. Guestimate a third of a teaspoon and mix it in. Note: this doesn't work in antibiotic or wormer! Be accurate with those.

That would be true of liquid measurements. Dry stuff like powder is different. It's 2 different kinds of ounces. I agree with they'reHISchickens, not super important for V&Es.

Is it similar to powdered sugar/splenda? I'm not familiar with Rooster Booster. I just did a few calculations.
1 dry ounce of powdered sugar is .375 of a cup. That is a bit more than a 1/3 cup. So you could measure out a little more than 1/3 cup and roughly divide into 16 parts.
I just went and measured it out myself and it is about 16 teaspoons.

How convenient is that? Roughly about 1 teaspoon per gallon.

Yes it's very much like Splenda, definitely a little lighter than granulated sugar.


So consensus is between 1 teaspoon per gallon and 1 teaspoon per 3 gallons?
