🚿MIXED NUTRIENT SOLUTION 🚿
I am not measuring exact amounts applied, but I would estimate she received approximately between 10-16 oz of solution about every other day or two. I mixed 2.5 gallons of solution all my seedlings to be administered throughout the week as needed.
👩🔬NUTRIENT SOLUTION👩🔬
⬇️Mixing Rundown⬇️
The solution starts with 2.5 gal tap H2O filtered through two kdf filters mixed in a 2 gallon (I overfill) hand pump sprayer. The solution is applied via wand sprayer with sprayer end removed because it's faster and gentler without.

.5 tsp/gal - Fox Farm Gringo Rasta Cal-Mag

SOIL MIX DETAILS:

All components were mixed into a 50 gallon tote that is kept in a warm environment to help innocculate to promote a vast and diverse microbial life in the rhizosphere. Once mixed, add 32-64oz water once every 7-14 days as needed. The goal is to keep the soil moisten without oversaturating.
