Check out this article on nitrogen used with k to pump as much as possible.
Cutting N is the wrong thing to do plant health wise and yield wise in flower.
Does anyone know how to make a liquid concentrate with jacks hydro two part. It’s a pain in the butt always weighing them out
That’s what I was thinking a two part mix part a jacks part b calcium nitrateNot always easy to do usually to make concentrates you need to separate the nutrients in to 2 parts to prevent them from precipitating out of the solution in order to concentrate them enough to benefit you. I would not even try and if you did it would likely require quite a bit of water to do so with out precipitation. I would just weight it out ahead of time in small containers.

Sounds fine to me.
what would be the recipeSounds fine to me.
Depends on your target concentration. I'm a lazy man and use a nutrient calculator that does all the work for me. I just input what i want and it spits out what i need. https://scienceinhydroponics.com/20...hydroponic-nutrient-calculator-program-o.html It even allows me to put in my local water conditions to adjust my nutrient levels.what would be the recipe

...Hate measuring liquids as much as weighing out powder. Basically the same thing. Same work.
You are the balls now that is simpleDissolve 220g of 5-12-26 into 32 oz water.
Dissolve 148g of Calcium Nitrate into 32 oz of water.
Now you have two stock solutions. 10ml per gallon of each will give you an EC of about 1.2 (600ppm on .5 scale).
If you want to include Epsom salt for extra mag, dissolve 72.6g of epsom salt into 32 oz of water. 10ml per gallon works out to about 1.2g/gal.
With the above solutions, the 3-2-1 method is as simple as adding 10ml of each solution per gallon of water. You can adjust the concentration by either making stronger stock solutions, or just using more than 10ml/gal. The important thing is the 1 to 0.67 ratio of 5-12-26 and CalNit.
I think I’ve just become used to measuring liquid mutes, thanksThe other option is just weight out like 20 bags of each in ziplocks and throw them in a tupperware container. I use 8 different chems so I feel you on weighing but i just weigh everything up once a month and mix in like 10 mins. Hate measuring liquids as much as weighing out powder. Basically the same thing.

3 lbs jacks per gallon of waterIs there a recipe
3 lbs jacks per gallon of water
8 lbs cal nite per gallon of water
3 lbs epsom salt per gallon of water
At room temperature.
Each nute must have its own stock solution container. Calcium binds with sulfur and creates gypsum, precipitating out of solution. That's why jacks doesn't have calcium.Can you really get 14 pounds of salt to dissolve in a gallon of water?
Lol. :)

This is a max solubility and does not represent a ratio of feed concentration. Divide total number of grams by 3785, as that's how many ml are in a gal. That gets you g/ml
He meant pounds, he's making a stock solution.I was trying to be sarcastic. You wrote pounds instead of grams.
