HYDROPONIC NUTRIENTS and the Formula We Use!

[@mikeghirmay2669]

Best Hydroponics show by far, lots of knowledge, straight to the point , thank you !

[@mistyn380]

I'm so glad I found this channel thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us!

[@MetaView7]

Yes, epsom salt is very important in plant growth. Magnesium is at the center of chlorophyll.

[@Jr-sh9nn]

I also use the same nutrients on a much smaller scale but excellent for peppers, tomatoes and cucumber .. great vids ..really enjoy your tips !!

[@victormarinescu319]

Great info, thank you! I have some questions: 1. How often you are replacing the whole amount of liquid in the tank? 2. When the level of the liquid in the tank goes down I suppose that first you add water to bring back the EC to the level you want. But if the level of the liquid in the tank is too low and the EC is the one you want, do you top-up with a quantity of nutrient liquid with the same formula as you mentioned in the video? Do you top-up with small quantities every day or you add a larger quantity every week? 3. In case you top-up, it ever happens to lock the nutrients in the tank and the plants start suffering? Thank you in advance for your answers

[@buildstoys]

Thanks for the detailed videos on showing how you have things set up.

[@JScottAudio]

Hi Wayne and Patty....are you able to demonstrate a Nutrient Tank Changeover?

[@Growwiththelaplantes]

Yes, we can do that.

[@tabbs1955]

I love you guys. You are so simple and explain everything in such detail and simple language that even a 2nd grader can understand. Can you please tell me about the temperature in your green house, and how do you control the temperature to stay steady? Thank you for your time and the wonderful education you are spreading.

Из грунта салатики полезнее, мне кажется. Даже если добавляешь минералы в раствор, все равно растение из грунта может больше взять того что ему нужно. И потом затраты на вентиляцию и на насос прокачки раствора добавляются.

I have got so many technical knowledge of the hydroponic system you are promoting. I would like to clear some technical points from you about the Ph , Ec and oxygen management.

Outstanding crops superb video .

[@ronaldjensen1476]

Just want to thank you for taking time to share! I love that you will tell us what works for you! We're trying to start a lettuce greenhouse and was wondering about lights. What kind do you use and does it matter on how high you place them? I don't know what EC is... feeling a little uneducated on this. Thanks for the links!!! Thanks for helping us all! You two are giving all of us hope to be successful in this! Thanks so much! Looking forward to your next video!

[@kamalsale9644]

Thanks for your efforts to help us.... I get mixed up with the quantity of 3+ nutrients you used can you please put it in writing..

[@nahshonsmall7346]

Hello Wayne and Patty, can you tell me what is the EC of your source water before you add fertilizers?

[@brendynfeltz48]

I was also going to ask this! Our water is a base of 0.7, from discussions with others and literature it is best to maintain 1.2 over your baseline. Looking forward to hearing from Wayne!

[@alanw9823]

Hi is the EC the strength of your fertiliser , so if your EC was under 1 you would add more fertiliser and if it is near 2 you would add more water . Thanks

[@aramisd.3770]

You are DEFINITELY great persons guys..I really appreciate all your videos I'have seen. Theyt are very instructional and I have learned a lot with them. I am planing since early 2019 to start a small growing green house about 30m x 20m and I guess you are the propers one that I had me inspired to keep going on planning what to do and how to do. In a future I would like you to help with some things, of course if you can, and I really thanks you. Guys I am very curious but my big answer is....could I do this for a living? How many days and hours do you dedicate just for the hydroponics??? thanks again in advance for your kind help

[@michaelwillis1155]

By the way you have a beautiful greenhouse. I grew a few tomatoes and pot plants with mine. Your green house is nice production environment.

[@marioperezbaker]

Not only a day late it's a day late in 2 hours nice to see you guys again great information I got questions for you later

[@studiogerk]

Nice to have good water! I just have a small home setup but my water is super out there. Like 8-9+ depending on the day. Also pretty high PPM (150-200), so even for simple Kratky and DWC stuff that I'm doing requires constant maintenance.

[@ryanwillett728]

You'd be better served to install a kinetico system on the source.

[@brendynfeltz48]

Good Afternoon Wayne and Patty! Could you please provide your waters natural EC? There are a couple of us trying to figure out the delta of your “natural to balanced” formula.

[@ernie1027b]

[@carswartmod]

Thank you for this video! I am using all the same products that you show on this video. not getting great results though.... I contacted plant prod about using epsom salt and was told that their mix already included this and I should not add more. Thanks for the advise. I am an apartment grower mixing 1 gallon jugs growing herbs and peppers. So I will divide your numbers by 50 and see if things improve in here. Looking forward to more videos.

[@skimmy90]

Thank you for the informative video. Do you ever have algae growth issues? If so, what actions do you take to prevent algae growth?

[@Not_So_Weird_in_Austin]

Great video. The question i have is EC. CB in North Carolina talks about EC of 2. Any thoughts on the difference? Water PH, daylight etc.

[@EarlybirdFarmSC]

Great video. Always learning a lot from the hydro channels I watch.

[@davemarsh344]

Great video and information on nutrients! Also great timing as I'm in Mexico and can't find Hydroponic products here, so I will be trying to find the chemicals to mix my own. I have a question on troughs as I'm wondering if these are downspouts or something else? Thanks!

[@10cscharf]

What type of trough do you use for the finishing of your crops? It appears to be a flattened rain/gutter.

Bring it down to 1.0 EC and I bet you would see no difference. Lettuce really does not need what they state it does. This is just from my experience over the year. Have to say you folks have one awesome setup! Stay safe my friends and have a great week!

[@rosscollins2910]

Do you ever get alge growth? If so how do you eliminate it? Thanks

[@Average1212]

Seeing as no one answered you I will chime in. You will never eliminate Alge growth as long as you have water light and nutrients. You manage it with a proper reservoir water rotation cycle and minimizing light exposure where you can( keeping reservoir blacked out). You could eliminate most of the Alge by running a UV light but that will pull calcium out of solution. In the end you just manage it.

[@jameseaston2028]

What temperature do you keep it through the winter? I imagine you heat with propane?

[@HIGHGRADECHANNEL]

Very nice this is a great product to use it's super cheap. I just dont like having to weigh them out lol.

[@saifulhanif20]

How to decide which EC range need to use? I saw some farmers use 1.5, another use 2.0 or 2.5.

[@nevales]

What's temp and humidity you maintain in your greenhouse Sir Ma'am. Thank you

[@Growwiththelaplantes]

We always tried to maintain a 68° night temperature, and a 70° daytime temperature. As far as humidity, we had exhaust fans going and a dehumidifier, which helped tremendously. We also had roll ups that we would have up to keep air circulating when needed.

[@79PoisonBreaker]

[@geminidiasz6929]

Can you do a video on how to set up the PVCs and how the irrigation flow through the system ?

[@timpage5021]

This is great. Can I ask how you got clients say from the restaurants? Was it from the farmers market or did you cold knock restaurants with your produce?

[@Growwiththelaplantes]

It was both . But mainly word of mouth from the farmers market as we and our product got known. Cold knock is an absolutely fantastic way to promote your product, though. Give them a sample and let them decide.

Hi. What do you use to control algae on your tubes?

Thanks for the video After you mix new nutrients then just continue added into reservoirs,? What about old nutrients that you still have in reservoir? are you test for the pH or EC in the main reservoir everyday and if it’s not correct, how do you adjusted? Please advise

Thanks your video, Just wonder when flowering stage are you guys change the nutrient adding percentage..? Cheers

Greens don't flower before harvest.

[@saleemboodoo6536]

Hey quick question, When adjusting/ adding nutrients to your solution to maintain the target EC, do you add all parts again? How does this work?

[@2ghydroponics157]

Wayne, do you add the epsom salt with the plant prod. and the calcium nitrate last? Is there a concern with nutrient block like in the Master Blend?

[@apple-on5pq]

calcium nitrate, sulfate and phosphate based nutrients should mixed seperately before adding into the reservoir.

[@jtimsbla]

So, just getting into hydroponics now and have a 90 hole setup. Would you minimize how much you put into a smaller batch? Is there a ratio to water that you use?
