No, just give it a stir before using.
Most fertilizer manufacturers recommend using any made up solution within 24 hours, some say less, some say more.
Hydro/DWC is a different kettle of fish and requires constant aeration.
Plain water needs nothing.

They are...

Quick One 56 - 63 days
GSC “finishes” 70-77 days
Harvest before I go or when I get back?!Week 7
