I hope you don't mean to pre mix the nutrient concentrates together and then mix it with water? I thought this was a big no-no.

Is it a chem mix or a organic mix? I wouldn't suggest mixing chem ferts cause that could cause some serious burns if done in excess (which it usually is). You could mix organic ferts but look at the N-P-K value and make sure you are mixing the right nuts for the time of growth in the plants life and not giving it too much P when it needs N. Quick question; 1) What is the N-P-K value of the ferts you are planing to use? This info will help determine your answere partly.

Another thing, did you add any bone meal or other types of soil enhancments to you soil (I'm assuming your using soil). If you did then the plants can usually can last a month or longer without needing any ferts. Also, it is really recommended that you don't give your plants ferts during the first month of their life. Hope some of this helped.

Happy Toking :rasta:

ok no pre mixing. good lookin out. thanks. to all you lazy growers NO PRE MIXING NUTERIENT CONCENTRATE.

What are you talking about? If you didn't mix and were using 5 different nutes are you going to have 3 to 5 gallons of water for each nute in order to water just a few plants in 2 to 5 gallon pots. That means you could have 25 or more gallons of water for a few plants because you are trying to seperate all of the nutes in their own mix, LOL. Not mixing nutes, where is the thread on that? This is done in hydro, soilless and soil all of the time. Yes there are some nutes that have a particular order to be mixed in such as the GH3 part, and organic nutes with som poroxide res cleaners, but these ar a few exceptions. Not trying to be hard on anyone, but you can mix nutes together that is why there are TDS/PPM meaters in order to measure the dissolved solids or amount of nute consentrate.
