Hi! What should a good fertilizer contain, suitable for the flowering phase? And what could I use if I want to buy it in a hardware store? Or can I just keep using my normal fertilizer, that I also used during the growing phase? Thanks for your help :)

Keeping nutrients longer
I have a simple system with a pump that adds water to my coco pots once every couple of days but the nutrient solution starts separating (making a foam) after a couple of days. Do you have solutions for this problem or nutrient suggestions? I am currently using canna coco a/b.

Automatic irrigation
I bought a dustbin with a lid as bought a water pump, tubing, 4mm connectors and 4mm plastic sprayers that are meant to be controllable by screwing a lid. It’s not all 4mm tubing. The flow is so weak and I can’t figure out why. The pump has a big enough flow. What a let down :(
