calcium is a salt.. And Im pretty sure Nectar of the gods is a salt based nutrient..
@incogneato Can you verify for me as I know you use, or at least used this line for awhile?

It’s an akaline earth metal, not seeing it’s a salt bud. Nectar line is not nitrate based like a lot of nutrient lines, I did my homework on this one

I also think it's time to transplant. You'll be surprised at how quickly roots grow.

@SinCity I’m gonna give them a little bit more time and going to give transplanting a shot like you suggest. Waiting on some soil gear to arrive

I stand corrected...

yeah Necter is Calcium based but nectar is enzymatically digested so it is completely broken down
and you are right Calcium is considered a metal..most abundant metal on earth

my apologies... I dont think that makes it pure organic tho, if that was your hope..

Not sure about it being organic or what makes it organic if it is. I like how Scott Ostrander stands by his nutes, and explains with a scientific approach about how his nute line works. I’m definitely going to heed your advice and make sure I don’t have any nutrient toxicity showing up.

oohhh-- i love alkaline earth metals! but let's remember that the element Calcium (Ca) is never found in nature as an isolate. Ca is highly binding, so we usually see it as calcium carbonate (CaCO3).

maybe that's why they're calling it a calcium-based system...the calcium compound would deliver the nitrogen and phosphorous molecules...but the desired ratio between the three would ultimately still be the same (you know chemistry and all that). i get what you're saying re urea and uric acid, but let's remember that aquatic organisms excrete pure ammonia as their nitrogenous waste...i know that company is a fish processor first and foremost...not saying they aren;t great! just talking chemistry

and I almost wrote you off for a retard earlier...
Welcome to the farm..
On a brotherly level, it was because you offered up some bad advice earlier in the thread, and one thing mods, or older members hate, is some one new coming here sounding like a know it all from youtube videos..
So I can see you got some intelligence, or knowledge, so dont hurt your chances of becoming a potent member, and contributor by trying to jump into giving advice to quickly... Sit down, make your self at home, and just chat and get to know some more of the members.. Read, and follow certain threads and members,, and I can see you fitting in around here pretty well...

Hydro seems cool, but I can’t see how I would get around not using ro/di water. Ro water is too wasteful for me unless you can capture that runoff and use somewhere else, I’m not a plumber so I don’t see that happening for me

I know i'm probably gonna get my chops busted on this, but i meant like environmental waste haha. Don't shoot me, I've read that for every 1 gal of r/o water produced it dumps 3-4 gals of water to waste.
Maybe you could point me in the direction of a good system, because what I don't like is my tap water ppm after running it thru a catalytic carbon filter is 101ppm
