Ca 114
Fe 2.67
Cu 0.2
Mn 0.75
Zn 0.3
B 0.67
Co 0.0357
Mo 0.0475
It's not an easy set of ratios to get. The main problem is that common sources of Magnesium include equal parts of Sulfur. You might also find it helpful to look for EDHA chelates.

Thank you for your advise, at the moment I am not able to water according to ppm.
But I am creatig a nutri-mix according to the amounts you wrote.
I went shopping today,
I bought: Bor(5Liter) liquid form with 5%
, Mangan 5Liter with 3%
, Calcium 5 Liter with 10%
, Cu 5Liter with 5 % ,
Zn 25 kg with 22%,
FE 25 kg with 17 % ,
Magnesium 25 kg with 16% (also has 32 %Sulfur)
Also Sulfur 50 kg with 98%,
When I mix the amounts within water(complete 10 Liter) I add:
100 gr Mg, 320 gr Ca, 6gr Fe, 2 gr Cu, 6,6gr Mn , 0,5 gr Zn, 4gr Bor.
I get your numbers , the pure amount I get is : 16 gr Mg, 32 gr Ca, 1gr Fe, 0,1 gr Cu, 0,2 gr Mn, 0,1 gr Zn, 0,2 gr Bor. I also get 32gr Sulfur ,which is 24 gr too much.
As you mentioned before many Magnesium-supplements inhibit too much Sulfur, mine inhibits 32%, means when I use 100 gr Mg, I also give 32 gr Sulfur, which is 24 gr too much.
What do you think is it very important?
I can try to find a source with pure Mg, without Sulfur.
What do you think about this mix?
I could not find Co and Mo yet, just in mixed-form, not pure. I spent about 200 bucks for all this stuff. Hope it will suffice for a few years.
