Are components strong the same as components?

Are the concentrations of the component strong the same as the individual components? The reason I'm asking is I have been considering dosing them by hand as opposed to adding them to my dosing solutions.

I dont think so, there is a reason why they called component strong right.

So I would love to add them to my 2 part but I'm worried about adding Component C to sodium carbonate (which I use instead of KH Buffer). KH Buffer from Aquaforest is sodium bicarbonate. I'm trying to get the benefit of the pH boost by using sodium carbonate over KH Buffer.

As far I know its iodine and fluorine which should not mess up with sodium carbonate.

Components Strong are more concentrated than Component ABC.
Components Strong contains Potassium also.

So if I buy the components ABC is there a calculation to dose them in terms of Calcium consumption? Like 1 drop per 20ppm etc?

This is the exact same question I was trying to figure out. Component Strong comes in only 50ml so to match that to my 20gallon container, I'd need 8 bottles of it. I'd love to know what the ratio of regular component is to the Aquaforest Calcium and KHBuffer.
