Hydroponic "6 pack" nutrients
all around base nutes. During flower though I would add the bloom additives to increase the P and K, and drop the base nutes down accordingly.
#1 calcium nitrate
#2 potassium sulphate
#3 potassium nitrate......which is.....salt peter
#4 mono-potassium nitrate......which is.....MKP
#5 magnesium sulphate......which is.....epsom salts
#6 trace elements & nitric acid
formula is as follows (you may have to increase or decrease the amount of water to account for your strains tolerance to nute levels)
#1 765g/1000L or 30.6grams /10 gallons
#2 530g/1000L or 21.2grams/10 gallons
#3 223g/1000L or 8.92grams/10 gallons
#4 220g/1000L or 8.8grams /10 gallons
#5 456g/1000L or 18.24grams/10 gallons
#6 Trace elements .29gr/1000L or .01grams/10 gallons
nitric acid 50 ml/1000L or 2ml /10 gallons
This is all based on 4L of water to a gallon
yeah, I've been on this for a bit too. Theres a smart guy, although a bit abrasive whos made some posts, work works at a university in a lab and can do chemical assays. Basically his summary is that nutrient manufactures, all get their same supplies from likely the same suppliers in China, mix it, and sell it for 100-500x markup.
not sure if this cross link is ok with rules here, but he mixes all his own stuff and tries to give some tutorials how to do so. The hard part are the micro nutrients but in the end, it comes down to big nutrient companies selling 50 cents worth of nutrients, with heavy marketing and charging $100+ dollars.
