Hi friend, Consider your nutrient mix a chemical reaction. Adding concentrates together can result in exponentially fast reactions that can make the nutrients unavailable the plant. Generally you want to add the least soluble nutrients first. This is why they recommend you add micro first in most 3 part systems. Most nutrients can be compatible at low concentrations so diluting your mix before adding it to another will keep the unwanted reactions to a minimum. Essentially, they should work together as long as they are added together in a diluted form. Hope this helps,
