Live Stoner Chat Do you or do you not wear gloving to mix nutrients

[GCase]

Curious to know how members approach mixing nutrients by hand.

Either gloves as barrier or just washing hands.

Wondered about this the other day when read back of nutrient bottle. Must be fine print for have not read warning on labels. This bottle recommended gloves and was just a basic fertilizer nothing caustic.

Cheers

I do, especially when handling the PH up and down! But yes, I glove up!:thumbs:

I never wear gloves, except when I trim. I always just wash my hands after mixing my nutrient solution, I use my pH meter as my mixing stick. I'm more worried about the poop based nutrients than the H2O2 and pH-.

I never use gloves, but then I rarely touch the nutrients. And I have less reason to anyway now that I'm using BioBizz.

I also don't use gloves when handling 15% H2O2 and cleaning my glassware with acetone, so yeah I might be a bit of a dumbass.

I also never wear gloves. I'm barefoot a lot in the grow room; have had a lot of run-off splash these toes and bottom of the feet.

Really just been hoping that it turns me into the Toxic Avenger:

No gloves.

Like posted above, washing afterwards is essential.

I should clarify, I use organics when I do use bottled nutes and I don't stick my hand in the solution to mix it.
