I use this solution at all stages, only the concentration differs when applied once, while in deep water culture x2.

Concentration x5, just need to pour and dilute. The acidity will drop if water is added.

Done. Labor intensive but cost effective. The last harvest yielded the following results:
H2O 390l
Substrate 51l
Fertilizer 0.5 kg
0.56 kg of marketable species.
1.6g per wat

Interested in what you are doing friend, watching closely! It looks like you are creating your own nutrient solution from materials?

I'm proud of this solution, it's been working since winter. I've been working on it for over three years. I read a lot, but I didn't do well in school. I had to sweat a lot.

That's very cool, so you made a good recipe for liquid fertilizer for your plants? Very cool! Don't worry I didn't do well in school either, I didn't do well in an education environment, I learn a lot better on my own. Sounds like you do too. Good stuff my Russian friend!

Thank you very much. I'm sure we benefit each other by communicating. When I have something to share, I do. Surprisingly, cannabis has helped me learn patience)))) wise plant.Who knows...maybe the major discoveries are just ahead of us

Keep it up brother! I think I would be too stupid to mix this up by myself, but there are others who will surely be able to do it. Did you also experiment with ready solutions by the way?

Without wasting any time, I started researching and trying. I was often wrong, but now I am like Wikipedia, I keep being wrong, but now it is scientifically proven. The main thing for me is to do it myself, ready-made foreign solutions are very expensive in my country. I would be ashamed to come to you without a prescription, I live in a country that leads in both fertilizer and crop production. I would be ashamed in front of my compatriots) If I have to do something, I have to do it uncompromisingly, that's what I tell myself.But I'm just at the beginning of my journey, that's why I'm here, I came to learn and share.

Oh I almost thought that you had no ready solution available at home - in that case I would have switched languages and said "Not macht erfinderisch"

But in this case I have to say "Übung macht den Meister".

Now I'm flying in the clouds, as now I have a whole greenhouse before I did everything in a 60x60 tent. I don't want to remember it) I don't need big volumes at all, we will just keep an eye on the plants.

Composition: Content, g/l: Potassium (K2O) - 110 g/l, Nitrogen (N) - 100 g/l, including urea (N-NH2) - 100 g/l, Amino acid complex, including. Aminoacetic acid - 20.0 g/l, Zinc (ZnO) - 1, 6 g/l, Copper (CuO) - 1.6 g/l, Manganese (MnO) - 1.6 g/l, Sulfur (SO3) - 1.1 g/l, Magnesium. (MgO) - 1.1 g/l, Iron (FeO) - 0.2 g/l, Boron (B) - 0.2 g/l, Molybdenum (Mo) - 0.5 g/l, Cobalt (Co) - 0.1 g/l, Selenium (Se) - 0.3 g/l. The pH (without dilution) is 6.9. Here is an example of the finished solution, one of the components. I've tried similar solutions, but never used it specifically for cannabis. But it is just as expensive as the foreign ones. Plant science is trying to keep costs down.so my option is do-it-yourself.

If we're talking about saving money, how about a little savings :) I'll recalculate to make it convenient for you. 1 kW = 0,075 usd.
1 kg of fertilizer = 2-4 usd.
1 gram of marijuana on the black market costs 10 to 30 usd.
Foreign fertilizers are 10 or more times more expensive

So... how much would your own solution cost you per year? And with how many plants would you usually work per year?

(Without seeds, electricity, ect.)

For me it would be ~ under 50€/$ per year with growing 18-24 per year. (Fertilizer only)

Equals to ~4$ per month or 2€ per plant

I try to keep track, I don't keep records, the last Harvest charged 120 usd, I count the volume of substrate but not the roots. Total volume 0.56kg , 350W 301n samsung 3000+3500k, now +100w light. 2304 LEDs. The total cost of equipment does not exceed 650usd

you do the same recepie the whole grow? no lowering N for late flower?

11kg bag of masterblend is 100$ and you need 0.5g for 1L of solution. i do 4 plants a year and 300g bag is still with me after 5 years....

Potassium and calcium competition is concentration dependent, at the point of critical mass I increase the concentration, yes nitrogen is always available but calcium matches nitrogen and if potassium competes, calcium becomes less available and therefore nitrogen will subordinate to calcium. There are necessary balances of the main competitors, but in principle, the plant and the full cycle will pass, the main thing here is not even to make potassium more available, but to monitor evaporation, in higher concentrations they are less.

your calcium is your nitrogen if you increase the calcium you are increasing the natrium as well Ca(No3)2 -5g
