I don't know if the nutes will still have the same effect if it has been sitting in the water for like a week or so. Any feedback?

I've used Miracle Grow Bloom Booster and Peter's 20-20-20, mixed to outdoor strength...but for those I'm pretty sure it's one level tablespoon (the bigger spoon of the two) to a gallon of water. 1st Feeding, I dump 3/4 of the jug out and filled it back with regular water, diluting the mix to 1/4 outdoor strenghth. Then 2 or 3 regular waterings (with heavy flushing, steady streaming out the bottom). 2nd feeding, 1/2 strength, then regular water, working up to full strenghth. By the time I hit full strength it's time to convert to 12/12...flush real good, then repeat with bloom booster.

It might seem wasteful to dump the mix, but I'm on my 3rd grow since Jan 06with the same two boxes and plenty left!
