    enough to get your levels right.... without knowing your current values and what you are dosing with and more info on what you have this is a hard question to answer.

    +1 on above

    Its not a good idea, to dose without testing
    you need to know where you are now
    know what your targets are
    know how much is used up in any given period of time
    and then add the required amount of chosen product to compensate
