In case of ferrite core there is no calculator as correct KT315 say, cause ferrite rods characteristic are uneven.
With ferrite you need other approach, by examination test, but you need inductance meter.
First you need to wound some testing turns of wire on your ferrite: say 30 turns or so (more turns more exact results at the end).
After testing coil (of say 30 turns) is wound, you need to measure its inductance.
If your testing coil of 30 turns has measured inductance of (say) 20uH, then you need per 1uH (30/20=1.5) 1.5 turns of wire.
According given results, you need for 140uH (140x1.5=210) 210 turns of wire (210 in this example approach of course).
