Question about nutrient dosing a 75 Gal CO2 planted tank. Help/Advice

Currently researching CO2 for my new 75 gal, have all the parts for it either here or on the way. I'm a touch confused by the guide for nutrients on the subreddit. So far I'm planning on dosing these as recommended on the bottles to start and then increasing. I also have a bottle of Aquarium CO-OP easy green that I've been using on my 29 gal that I could add as well but was thinking not. Does this dosing list sound okay? Is there anything I should change, or watch out for, cheaper options or really just any advice would be lovely. Thanks in advance, cheers.

Would the fertilizer in the link you provided be enough? Or would I have to buy all their products?

The link should include 4 different fertilizer elements. That should be all that you need.

NPK is short for Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium. CSM+B is all the micro nutrients you'll need.

Sadly it turns out I can't buy this because I live in Canada, would you know any Canadian brands by chance lol

Edit: I found this https://www.aquariumdirect.ca/en/dry/1591-aaa-estimative-index-ei-.html do you think this would work for my needs?

It's slightly different but it should work just fine.

I'm guessing some of the raw ingredients can't be sold individually there so they have alter it a bit.
