Fast Track Testing

[Sarah]

Question: If I "know" the FC is going to be high, can I add the drops, from the test kit, in increments of 5 or 10 prior to mixing ?
Will doing this skew the results ?
I'm in the shocking process and adding lots of drops (20 - 30)
tonight I added 41 (mixing after each drop) and it becomes tedious quickly !

You can, or better yet, get a speedstir

A what ? "speedstir" ??? Joke, right ? (I wish there WAS something so I wasn't "swirling" all the time...(making me dizzy LOL)) Thanks for the quick response. It will go a lot faster if I can add 5 drops, swirl, etc.
