Ammonia: is at 1ppm to my surprise after waiting a month it finally dropped!
Nitrite: Still at a 0
Nitrate: 20ppm

Well, congratulations for entering the third stage of fishless cycle. Big Grin

There are obviously good number of beneficial bacteria for both ammonia and nitrite. The nitrate reading speaks for it.

Don't let ammonia go down to 0 for more than a few hours.
You need to dose more ammonia to have it get back to anywhere between 2~6ppm. Test it again in 24 hours.
