Salifert Mg Test kit instructions HELP!!!

[ahmedess]

I just bought a Salifert Mg test kit and I lost its instructions. I searched for instructions online and I found three different ones available:

one that says add 5ml of water to be tested and 6 drops of Mg-1, another that says add 2ml of water to be tested and 5 drops of Mg-1 and a third one that says add 2ml of water and 4 drops of Mg-1.

know I am pretty confused I do not know which one to use. I have also checked some videos on youtube about this kit and they seem to be using different size of spoon and the dropper looks different than the one i have.

Heres a picture of my test kit hope anyone that has the same version of my kit can help me out

The instructions that came with my test kit state:" Add 2ml of water to be tested to the test vial, then add 5 drops of Mg-1 and swirl gently for 30 sec, then add 1 spoon of Mg-2 (swirl for 10 sec), then fill the included syringe with reagent Mg-3 to 1ml mark and start adding to the test vial until color changes to gray or blue.
