Fishless Cycling

I have recently purchased a 64 litre fishtank and after a lot of research have decided that the best way to set up my tank is to do a fishless cycle. The only problem i am having is understanding how to carry out the fishless cycle. How much ammonia am i supposed to put into the tank each day??

Any help would be much appreciated
