New Grower First Exposure

[9bear]

This is my first exposure to nutrients and I must confess to being slightly intimidated and overwhelmed by this subject . There's a lot of information to digest out there . To make a long story short I ended up with a 3 part system by Floratonic . The first thing that caught my attention was the concentration of these materials . (70 ml per 100 liters of water !!) at week one , which means for a guy like me that has a 3 plant grow were talking .35 ml per 1/2 liter of water if my math serves me correctly . Now I don't know about you but that strikes me as being heavily concentrated and I might add a bitch to measure with a shot glass . These kind of concentration don't even discolor the water . Floratonics feeding schedule is available on their website for your scrutiny .I would of course be interested in your observations on this topic and suggestions are also appreciated to keep me on the right course . :no:

Not sure of that brand but a great way I measure nutes is with syringes from the local pharmacy... Get a 1ml one and a 5ml one and it makes measuring small amounts like that easier.... Though I am thinking you'll be watering more than a 1/2liter a week?

First time I can remember seeing anyone using those nutes. The nutrient calculator they have on their web site is geared to growing hydro. I assume you are growing in soil? I would contact them directly and see if they have a schedule for soil use.
