I think you may be over thinking this. Instead Of trying to reinvent the wheel.. Why Don't u just get a dosatron or mix rite fertilizer doser. I prefer mix rite. I think my adjustable mix rite was like 350$. They have ones that are not adjustable for less.

No need for rez or pumps or relays. Just the doser and a cheap 24v sprinkler timer and valves.

In my depp i use one to lightly feed on every water. I manually flush once in a while with straight water. If u dont want to feed on every water u just throw a sprinkler valve on your doser manifold and set it for when you want to feed.

A cheap rainbird 6 zone could do your 4 zones, and have 2 zones left for controlling the doser.

@CrushnYuba Why do you prefer mix rite over dosatron?

This thread is pretty old. I think the gator xls are the best. Especially for 200$. Mix-rite also makes some really cool stuff.

Gator xl are really overbuilt. They inject on the outlet so nutrient doesn't go into the water powered motor part. They are really built like tanks. The way they do the liner, they will last forever.
