Blumats and Feeding

SleepyLeviathan
SleepyLeviathanstarted grow question 10 months ago
For people who use Blumat systems, what's the procedure for mixing in nutrients/supplemental things for growth? The Blumat system pulls water when the soil dries past a certain point, so what's the best rule for feeding in that case? Shut the system "off" a few days pre feed?

Don't ever shut off your blumats They will turn off themselves when you top water

I dont use this system but it appears very much like a dripper irragation system to me. I would assume its taking water from some kind of reservoir which is where you would usually mix your nutrients. I would follow the feed table for the specific nutrients you have so if your reservoir is say 100L you would need to times the ml per litre by 100 so if it says to use 1.7 you actully use 170 then vice versa I would though I could be wrong I'm not actully sure just guessing so feel free to ignore this answer and hopefully someone with more knowledge will answer it lol best of luck buddy very interesting system ive never seen before so thanks :) i would also add like any top or bottom fed system i would first wait until plant is well established until turning on so like 3rd week of veg or somthing this way you will avoid any over watering issues that might arrise :)
