Hi all new to forum looking for advice. I have 6 plants in an outdoor grow . Water is supplied by 2 - 100 gal water tanks that are ph ed around 6-6.3. The water is air stoned and circulated for a couple days to rid chlorine. My question is how much and how often should I add the PK to the tank/s? Any and all info appreciated
 
This leaves alot to be guessing at or for us to assume what kind of grow you got going. Are they inground, in pots how big of pots? On a drip system? Anyway.....i hand water my nutes using gal. old milk jugs and i mix my nutes by what label tell me to use per gal. I set my jugs out for days to rid the cholrine smells out. I'm now feeding 0-10-10 NPK as you can see there's no N in my bloom food but i do use worm castings teas along with seabird guano.
 
Pk 13/14 isn't needed till at least halfway thru flower,does nothing if u apply at the wrong time.76
 
i threw my pk13/14 in the bin after i messed up 2 grows with the fkin stuff.....inside and out, i gave a bit too much, and the plants just locked up, it was my fault because i was halfway through bud and gave 2ml at watering but i gave another 2ml too soon , i always thought nute overload would start as tip burn but with that you get no warning . the guy in the shop even warned me to be careful with it but i didnt think 4 ml would be too much

All tap water is confined to safe world limits, 3ppm is nothing it doesn't effect plant or soil.

pk boosters given once week four once week five were found to be best as an addition.

Just good ferts will do a great job no booster needed but that depends on your range.
 
How are you going to measure what's in the tank?
100 gal ph water
100 gal nute solution
(Wouldn't want to clean that tank)

Mixing 1 100 gal tank and using it as a base then refilling when empty or as needed.
Keeping the tank at the correct ph and ppm/ec is going to be key.


Diluting for plants that need a weaker or solution.

Again depending on how much water they take at feeding time.
I have seen people make concentrated nutes and add water, then feed.

A lot of factors would play into this for me.

This is a feed calculator for the nutes I use. Might answer some questions


Any pics? sounds like an awesome setup.

Welcome to the farm.
