Keeping nutrients longer
longearringboy420started grow question 4y ago
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.

Keep it agitated. Have a 2nd pump keep the reservoir agitated (mixing)

Add an air pump to the reservoir with airstones (like the ones used for aquariums) This will keep the solution aerated and mixed all the time, ready for the next pump.

Hey unfortunately this is just what happens, in fact most nutrient manufacturers will tell you not to mix your nutes more than two days in advance for this very reason.. sorry bro

Bottom water absorption system cultivationI cultivate a bottom water absorption system in a 25L pot, but I am troubled with EC management every time. Since it is raised with 165w LED light, it is fun to determine the limit that does not burn.
Please tell us when to raise your EC.

Turning Autopot System on and off ?On which day after germination would you turn on the Autopot system and stop watering from above? The instructions said 7-10 days, but that wasn't enough for me. Would you turn the Autopot system on and off in the first weeks or leave it on all the time?Week 3
