add 1 teaspoon salt per 5 gallons, no additives, dissolve first, add slowly.
this is minimal just in case your water has significant salt levels already. Ingrid

do you have a little salt in the water?

No, I never got into the habit of adding salts to the water, mainly
because I didn't know what I was doing with them. I figured I should
leave well enough alone until something indicated to me that I should
change my ways. Should I be adding salts to the water?
