    Great video! Really cleared up some of my confusion on mixing nutrients.

    So to dose nutrients he buys hydroponic designed nutrients and reads the directions written on the bag.....ok. Mind blowing 🤯

    Dr. Nate, Great one and thank you for such an explanatory video. It's really helpful. I have stock 20 20 20 NPK and I would like to know best mix ratio with Calcium Nitrate and Epsom salt for making 100 gallons of nutrient solution for growing Lettuce in vertical system.Please do suggest the quantity of each to be added. Thanks

    Hi Dr. for this particular solution, how often you make a new mix, daily? weekly?

    Hi!I’m also doing vertical hydroponics set-up. I’m preparing my water reservoir but I’m wondering if that’s already

    Can you tell me what the difference is between the Lettuce fertilizer mixture and Master Blend? Does it have something additional in it or is it a different ratio of the same ingredients? I saw this stuff on the website and was wondering. I'm planning on growing lettuce, but other vegetables and fruit too.

    What about attaching a Mixture Head to a drill and speed up the dissolving process.

    Does anyone know where to buy the lettuce formula in europa? Or something similar?

    What is your target ppm level? The instructions say 1575 plus H2O level.

    What kind of calcium is used on aquaponics systems where you don't need to add nitrogen?

    i do not know if it correct as i am just learning but i mix each ingredient in a blender then put them in a bucket and dump them in the sump tank. i was having a hard time dissolving the ingredients and was afraid to use hot water. mixing them a couple minutes in a blender on high dissolves them very well even with cold water.

    he does get any issues with precipitation mixing all those salts in in the 5 gal bucket? seems like its such a high concentration?

    Hello, I have a nft and aeroponic system for lettuce , my question is: I have purchased a nutrient doser so I just program in it the desired EC I wanna keep in the reservoir and the dosser automatically adjust it from a stock solution when the EC in the reservoir drops down but, you are saying that, calcium nitrate must be separated out into the Part A stock solution and the monopotassium phosphate and magnesium sulphate into the Part B stock solution, something that I obviously do when I manually add the nutrients on my system, but I was pretty sure before purchasing the doser, that once the nutrients have been totally dissolved on the water separately we didn't have any danger of they making any reaction each other... But you say that if the concentration, even when they are totally dissolved but in a same solution is high enough they will react, you say : "Once these stock solutions are diluted with water (usually at a rate of 1 in 100 depending on the EC required), these reactions don’t occur so long as pH is also within the correct range. It’s only in the concentrated stock solutions where precipitation is an issue." As you must think it has been a enough inversion to me to buy a doser that just regulates the EC and I was hopping that if my reservoir its just 120 litters I can use a stock for nutrient upregulation that even having all the nutrients in that stock were tough enough concentrated fro make its function not so much as making any precipitation inside, so first, and if you can tell me, I would like to know in what concentration level it starts to be a problem for unwanted reactions when all the nutrients are dissolved in the same solution and what is your advice for me using my new device in this way, I hope my English been clear enough for this question been fully understood and I really hope you could answer my question, I really need this help, thank you!!!

    Thanks for the video 👍🏻 How does that work if you want to grow organically? Is there any organic dry nutrient solution you guys can recommend? I did some research recently but I'm having trouble finding organic solutions in Europe.
