Would it be ok to mix my nutes in to gallon water jugs? Or should I leave it in powdered form until I go to use? I purchased them from ILGM?

For autos our first was 14/10. 25 days then 12/12.
To the end, avg 4zips per plant.

We didnt push anything, we did less on everything.

We planned to water this go round to achieve run off. Not happening yet.

Example, oct, half gal fed, two days later again,

Now half gallon every 5 days. Cool weather?

i mean like i got powder nutes and i was wondering if its ok to pre mix them and keep them mixed already or is it better to keep them as powder then to mix it with water for storage?

Three days into it got a sprout!!! I’m excited!

Why spend hundreds on a setup then risk it to save 10 -20 dollars? Up and down regardless of brand are designed for plants and actually are cheap compared to most nutrients and supplements.

Exactly.

And do not premix nutes to sit more then 48ish hours. They will ‘clump’ and other sciency words.

Also pH drifts a fair amount

So during seedling stage should I be running %25 or 50% I feel like it may get a little chilly at %25 been running it at it but was wondering if it could be set to %50 and be good?

200w light, half is 100 so I dont see the harm. But how close is the question. If u can hit close to dli (and honestly I dont measure it myself, 100w light for seedlings, stronger as they grow) then ur good. If you find them stretchin, then you adjust

@cjkat There are longer posts on this as @PurpNGold74 says and there is some interesting info on the net. Following that guidance, I stick to classical or jazz. No rock, blues, hip-hop, or country, etc. in my tent. That’s what the living room is for :joy:

There’s a jazz mix that’s called Instrumental Jazz for Plants Growth on Spotify I have on now in the tent

I got some heavy heavy metal playing to them today guess I’ll switch it tonight when I get home =p hopefully they don’t turn into metal heads now

You are basically right but t be more exact, pure water has a ph of 7. That means the concentration of H+ and OH- ions are in equilibrium. iE neither basic or acidic.

Pure water? As in distilled? Im under the impressIon distilled is completely neutral (yes I know… 7 is neutral) and takes on the pH of whatever medium or splution it is applied to. Maybe you had a diff meaning of pure water?

Difference between a pH of 7 and a pH that goes with whatever maybe negligible but there is a diff correct?

Not tryna be facetious or arguing for arguments sake, honestly want to know and ur wording sounds like your grasp is better then mine @Bob247

Also welcome to ILGM!
