yan402 FERMAKOR BARREL MIX – BASE IN USE (Testing on the Fantasy Feast girl we pulled out of another diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/274722-grow-journal-by-yan402 ) (FERMAKOR BASE SYSTEM KOH VERSION diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/278391-grow-journal-by-yan402) (Urea & Micros on the way — first week running without them) 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 30 L Barrel – Current Working Mix 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 Step 1 – Calcium Nitrate (Part A) 7 L warm water (~35–40 °C) → added 45 g Calcinit, stirred until fully clear. That’s the calcium + nitrogen backbone for the feed. Step 2 – FERMAKOR PK Base (Part B) 15 L water in the main barrel → added 30 ml FERMAKOR PK Concentrate, mixed well. This forms the main P + K part of the formula. Step 3 – Combine Solutions Slowly poured the Calcinit mix into the barrel while stirring — no reaction, still crystal clear. That confirms the mix is stable and precipitation-free. 🌿 Step 4 – FPJ / FFJ Batch Added 30 ml homemade FPJ (fish + veg batch) ≈ 1 ml/L. Color shifted to a light-amber tone — looks alive and active. 🍋 Step 5 – Citric Acid Balance Added 1 tsp citric acid after everything was blended to fine-tune pH and help chelate micros later on. 📦 Step 6 – Top Up & Check Filled to the 30 L mark with plain water → pH tested with drops, showing yellow-green — roughly 5.8 – 6.0 range. Nice clean look, stable smell, no residue. 🧠 Current Status First day feeding the Fantasy Feast girl with this base mix. Too early to tell how she’ll react, but so far everything looks clean and balanced. Ca + N from Calcinit and P + K from FERMAKOR should be plenty for a gentle start. Citric + FPJ round it off nicely. We’ll see how she takes it over the next few days before deciding if she even needs the urea and micros. 💧 Current Base Ingredients (Active Mix) Warm Water ≈ 22 L total Calcinit 45 g → N + Ca foundation FERMAKOR PK Base 30 ml → P + K support Citric Acid 1 tsp → Chelation + pH balance FPJ / Fish Emulsion 30 ml → Organic enzyme booster Result: clean amber mix, mild and balanced. I’ll let this version run for a week before adding anything. 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 Day to day tasks & actions 🌿 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 19.10.25 VW26 – Fed 3l of #1 → 2l runoff 20.10.25 VW26 – Fed 3l of #1 → 2l runoff 21.10.25 VW26 – Fed 3l of #1 → 1l runoff 22.10.25 VW26 -- Fed 2l of #1→ 0.5l runoff 23.10.25 VW26 -- no water no feed 24.10.25 VW26 -- Fed 2l of #1→ 0.5l runoff 25.10.25 VW26 -- Fed 3l of #1→ 1l runoff 26.10.25 VW26 -- Fed 3l of #1→ 1l runoff 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 Nutrients in 30 L #1 (Veg Strength) 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 Calcium Nitrate (Calcinit / Nitcal): 45 g = 1.50 g/L → ≈ 225 ppm N + 150 ppm Ca 🍶 PK Concentrate (FERMAKOR Base): 30 ml = 1.00 ml/L → balanced 1 : 1 P : K support 💧 Home-made FFJ / FPJ (Fish + Veg Batch): 30 ml = 1.00 ml/L 🍶 Citric Acid (Chelation & pH Balance): 1 tsp (max) = 0.33 tsp/L → add only after checking pH 💧 Target pH: ≈ 5.8 – 6.0 (drop test – yellow-green zone) 📦 TOTAL: ≈ 105 ml / 45 g inputs per 30 L (≈ 3.5 ml / g per L active mix) 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 YouTube Link: https://youtube.com/@yan402-m8h?si=A7x4Zlr2kj-_ga31

Looking great, god luck with CUSTOM salt blend! That is the way to learn some things!

@WhiteEdge, It definitely works bro, I mean I gave her the potassium Hydroxide extraction nute and didn't use any micros for the first 8-9 days, I added some today together with Epsom salts but only because I'm flipping end of the week otherwise I would let her run longer without micros until I see some major deficiencies, so I'll be testing "fresh" on a seedling next grow, thanks for dropping by 🙏♥️✌️

@yan402, I can only say—keep it up. I'm always on alert when it comes to nutrients too; it's good to have extra inputs when needed. I tried in the past to create my own blend, but I couldn't find all the necessary ingredients with sufficient purity and solubility to use them with Aero nozzles. My PK formulation was always too thick and caused issues. Calcium nitrate is available in good quality, as is magnesium sulfate. Yara is good enough in that regard. Right now, I'm testing a few CaO and CaCl salts for a finishing formula instead of Athena Stack, which I have to buy in bottles and carry across the border. Liquid fertilizers have always been a hassle for me due to transport, and the only suppliers nearby consistently stock Advanced Nutrients, Hesi, and Plagron.

@WhiteEdge, If that's the case bro I can highly recommend getting potassium Hydroxide and phosphoric acid at 59% strength and combine the two in its pure forms of course diluted with water and there are steps to it but it's as pure as it gets, what I have done is not that though that's why I called it an experiment, I tried extracting micros something you don't need doing and could be counterproductive in a pure aeroponics setup like yours(god mode) . BUT LOOK INTO potassium Hydroxide plus Phosphoric acid, you won't regret it.

@yan402, Well, i will try to combine KOH (i have it already) with phosphoric acid . Any suggestion for phosphoric acid , for me its little bit harder to find it in raw salt form,

@WhiteEdge, As far as I know and understand it ain't practical to keep it in powder form, this is the version I have, it's basically sold as pH down for flowering. Ps same version but different brand.

Niiice plants brother, strong strain this 1, health lush powerhouses. Nice growing as usual. Much love 💚

@Green_claws, I love this strain bro, really dense buds been through hell and back, started indoors "thrown" outside due to space reasons lived from the runoff of my indoor plants for at least 2 months experimented on and I probably forgot a couple of things I have done to them lmfao, thanks for dropping by bro, much love 😘✌️♥️

@yan402, sounds like they have had quiet the life, probably made them more resilient end of the day, beautifully done. Peace and love
