Hey y'all, I'm tired of paying big bucks for nutrients so I'm trying to figure out how I can make a custom nutrient blend.
This is a good calculation page I came across so far.
https://e-gro.org/pdf/E305.pdf
It's just hard to find advice on specific amounts of each macro and micro nutrient for cannabis during veg and flower and at different plant sizes.
This is the blend I've come up with so far:
NPK and Calcium:
Calcium Nitrate,
Potassium Phosphate,
Also:
Magnesium Sulfate,
Calcium Hydroxide (during flower so there's less nitrogen, also it's pretty soluble bc it's prehydrated),
I'm not sure what to do about micro's -- I'm currently using MaxiBloom and MaxiGrow from General Hydroponics so rather than having a dozen or more nutrients, I might just stick with a lesser amount of Maxi for my micro nutes.
I know Kelp4Less also sells a "Micro nutrient" pack but I'm not totally sure what's in it since they're a little greedy and don't usually list ingredients.
Any advice or feedback is welcome!
