hi all

Did anyone try a Yara Ferticare 6-14-30 + Calcinit?I intend to buy this stuff,because in my county i can not get Brown.
Do you have any suggestions for ratio?
My tap water is 0.13 ec, almost RO.I have big problems with this water.
I grow in E & F tabels with hydroton.

Ps.
Do you guys use Epsom salt with yara brown,it seems that have very few mg for RO water?

The Ferticare range isnt available here but to approximate 1g of kristalon brown you could use 0.673g ferticare, 0.35g potassium sulphate (krista SOP) and 0.06g magnesium sulphate (krista MGS or epsom).
Calcinit at 0.974g would get you fairly close to 1g kristalon brown + 1g calcinit with the exception that Fe is higher and Mn is quite a bit higher.

thanks for help Me2.

Till now i already figured out my formula.I go deeper and start to calculate PPM for each neutrient element.
I can share this formula now ,maybe will someone like to try it.
I must say it is awesome! I never seen happier plants and i m growing almost 10 years.

YARA is BOMB!

I use Ferticare 6-14-30 +Calcinit 15.5 %N ,19% CA

My tap water is 0.13 ec ,so is very clean ,almost RO

I run 1.2-1.0 EC with neutrients ,ph 5.7. Ebb & flow tables ,with hydroton filled pots

Week 1-4

Ferticare (0.48g/l) ,Calcinit (0.52g/l)

N 111 ppm
P 29 ppm
K 118 ppm
Ca 100 ppm
Mg 12 ppm

Week 5-6

Ferticare (0.5g/l) ,Calcinit (0.4g/l)

N 91ppm
P 31 ppm
K 125 ppm
Ca 75 ppm
Mg 12 ppm

Week 7-8

Ferticare (0.5g/l) ,Calcinit (0.26g/l),P/K 13/14 (0.5ml/L)

N 71ppm
P 61ppm
K 185ppm
Ca 50ppm
Mg 12ppm

Week 9

Flush with only tap water.

When i first time use this formula i expected Mg deficiency,because Ferticare is low in Mg,but so far everything is ok.If lack of Mg shows up ,add Epsom salt ( 0.21g/l),this will be extra 20 ppm of Mg.

I think this formula will only work with soft water (0.3 ec max) or RO water.
If you have a higher tap water ec ,you will have too much Ca in the mix.

I bought a bag of ferty and calnit, enough for 50000 liters of solution.

And just want to let you know I't works well with coco and R/O. Far the best I've tried.

Yara Kristalon is a great Start for anyone wanting to stop using Hydrostore Fertilizer. Depending on Countrys theres a different Selection of Formulas.

Look for something that has little Ammonium Nitrate %, less then 5%. Sadly only few of their Formulas fit that Criteria. Less then 30% Potassium would be ideal on Coco but most Formulas that are low N are also high K.

Kristalon 7,5-12-36 and 15-5-30 are the best i found.
