gh works just fine in soil and as long as your not using organic inputs a rez will easily last a few weeks

fy1 - always mix your micro into the water first

I always pre mix it speeds things up for me I leave the water sit overnight with lid off to let unwanted inpurities escape than mix in the goodies,,,,,I think the other stone may help oxygenate the water a little more Motherload may have more input on that issue his advice is very knowledgable. Goodluck with everything

air stones do not add oxygen to the water through the bubbles - you need to break up the surface tension of the water - this is how o2 is absorbed

you can if you like - my preference is fluming to add o2 and keep the rez mixed - fluming is simply adding a small pump with the outlet directed up - turning it on 15 minutes before you water (either manually or with a timer) will add o2 and keep your rez well mixed - but with just using gh 3 part your should have no issues with fall out

Hello, I just want to ask a question, I have jungle juice. Grow,micro, and bloom. When do you start giving them nutes? When they pop out of the ground or when they get bigger. I'm a new grower and have never used nutes. Could use all the help I can get. She just popped out 2 days ago.

Listen to this guy.. best advice you can get.. many a grower ruins his nutrients by mixing them raw into one cup and then into water.. GH nutrients work good in soil, have a friend who has used it for many years with almost no issues.. What I'd do is using a 2 cup mixing cup, fill with water and add Micro nutes, pour into rez.. then allow that to work for 24hrs alone.. next day add your grow and bloom, separate from one another into rez.. One of the biggest things people overlook to use sometimes is a catalyst. Fine one that is pure liquid for your type of mixing, same reason Motherlode suggested staying away from organics as most have quite a bit of non dissolving particles within them..
Sounds like you've got some great advice here and should do fine.. luck
