fmols for nanopore library loading

We use the LSK114 kit and in the protocol, when loading a library it asks for a specific amount of fmol which requires knowing the length of the DNA fragments. Is there a way to estimate this without having to analyse the sample? If not, is it better to over feed it?

While this is not a bioinformatics question per se, you can use tapestation or a similar protocol to estimate fragment sizes.

Oh yeah, you're right I meant to ask in the nanopore community. My bad!
