Hello, I have all purpose plant food that I would like to use for my hydro garden it is from Schultz. My question is how much shut I use. The directions are for soil 1/4 tsp per gal for blooming house plant every time you water
1/2 tsp per gal for blooming potet plants
1/1 tsp per gal for blooming garden plants
?/? tsp per gal for hydroponic ?

Here is the home page for this plant food http://www.schultz.com/SpectrumBrands/Templates/ProductHomeTemplate.aspx?NRMODE=Published&NRORIGINALURL=%2fProductCategories%2fGardenFertili zer%2fAllPurpose%2f&NRNODEGUID=%7b03586241-80AC-47AB-AD0D-4DC620E2F552%7d&NRCACHEHINT=NoModifyGuest

You need nutrients that are formed for hydroponics. Dont use that in your setup.
If you want to sucessfully grow hydroponics you must put out some money on quality nutrients.
I suggest the General Hydroponics 3 part(Grow, Bloom and Micro)
Or Advanced Nutrients 3 part (Grow, Bloom and Micro)

I think you should read up a little bit about hydroponics..here are some of the overgrow FAQ's..Very useful info
