How can i make my own hydroponic nutrient solution?

Answer 1

Go to one of those "hydroponic gardening'" stores. Take a note pad. If they question you, tell them you are doing .... ahem, "research".

Check out what they use, they sell it. Read the label and go from there.

Oddly, I have been president of our city's gardening club and member for many years, and have not met one soul that did anything to do with "hydroponics".

The stores just keep a poppin' up.

Cheers!

Answer 2

Perhaps you could try fertilizer that is used for aquarium plants. You can get fertilizer like this in the better aquarium stores. Before using this on food-item-plants I would write to the manufacturers asking for the safety of this fertilizer.

I have 5 fish tanks and all are heavily planted. The fish are healthy and are growing...some of them are a few years old.

Answer 3

Pour it on actively transforming into plant life. Or in iciness, pour it on the compost heap. Fertilizer salts are not incredibly a bad concern. They happen in nature, and urine isn't something yet greater advantageous fertilizer salts our bodies do no longer choose. (plus table salt- plant life do unlike lots sodium). that's obtainable to burn plant life with too lots fertilizer, yet your plant life are not being burned by using it, so I doubt it might injury grass. If doubtful, dilute it greater. The compost heap is a solid place to place it simply by fact the humus in there'll grab the salts, and carry them loosely till plant roots launch them. It won't do any injury to the sewage equipment or a septic tank, and the quantity of foodstuff isn't too vast in comparison on your output of feces and urine. however the hydroponic foodstuff are freed from pathogens, so why burden the sewage equipment with them?
