I really want to learn how to make my own from salts.
Would be nice to be able to understand what is in the bottle and be able to match it.
Never really gave it much thought before. Now I am getting the urge to learn.
You need to do a lot of reading. But it's worth it. The raw site is a great place to get your feet wet. I use this site to calculate nutrient profiles with each elements ppm.

Read each label on the Raw site and play around with the numbers on the angel site to get the profile you want. Then search around on the web to find cheaper bags of chemicals that you want and play with those numbers. You can get stuff really cheap. Micronutrients are harder to calculate but just look at other companies labels and copy that.
The problem with all premixed two part fertilizers is they sacrifice elemental availability for convenience. Certain chemical compounds can not be mixed in concentrate without precipitation which is why you have multipart fertilizers. So all companies use less than ideal sources of elements. Mainly carbonates and ammoniacal nitrogen. When figuring your profile stick with WATER SOLUBLE nitrates, phosphates and sulfates. The down side to this is you'll need two, three or in my case four part concentrates but it's worth it.
How does the site you listed work with Raw soulables?
The Omina (amino acids from plant protein hydrolysate) smells and looks exactly like the Ramen noodle flavor packets. Lol. Good shit though. I add a touch now and then to my weekly foliar concoction.I just snatched up a bunch of these packets a few weeks ago, mostly to tweak my current nutes.the nitrogen is instant and strong lol.the humic and amino dont seem very soluble to me, was a lil disappointed about those.
Try putting in warmer water and letting sit 6-12 hours, alsobShaking & stirring mixture in that wait period. Also water should be left sitting over night in resovior so the molicules can settle. This make the water much more effective in consumption for humans as well as all living things. This is scientifically proven information. DrGI just snatched up a bunch of these packets a few weeks ago, mostly to tweak my current nutes.the nitrogen is instant and strong lol.the humic and amino dont seem very soluble to me, was a lil disappointed about those.
De?I've been using their silica for awhile and it's doing the thang for me! Bought a small packet for under $15 and it's lasted longer than any bottled silica I've had ....doesn't screw around with my pH either but tbh you can get these same effects for much cheaper just by watering and/or adding DE to your mix if you're in soil.
