Hydroponic Help needed
Hi all,
Let me 1st get something out of the way. I'm growing veggies and need some advise from experienced hydroponic gardeners. Not pot growers... its 2 totally different animals. My Setup: Drip System 25 gallon resivior 3 - 14foot troughs filled with cyrpess mulch as a growing medium. Flora Series nutes. feeding 30 minutes on 1 hour off. Picture of it withour plants (need to take a current picture with the plants) located here http://www.phat-fx.com/plugins/galle...um&id=misc_111 I am having to recharge my tank every 3 days and using close to 11 oz. of Gro, 9 oz of Micro and 4 oz. of bloom during the vegitative stage is going to break me. I buy the quart sizes for 32 dollars and this is going to break me. So my question is, what can I do to keep my costs down and my harvest up? I've heard of people using mirclegro tomato, epsom salt and nitrate for nutes but I am scared of killing all of my plants. help! :) |

Maybe you can also use a little less of the good stuff and mix it with Miracle Gro if you have to. But I would definitely stay with some good hydroponic nutrient solution for the micro nutrients. Thanks guys.. I am waiting for my GroCheck meter to come in so I can better see what I am dealing with. When it gets here I guess I'll try cutting back on so much watering. |
