Hey all. Thought I'd send a thank you from California to all you Aussie's for having Cutter Electronics. Did not even know they were from there until I just saw the shipping label. Any of you using their lights?

Yeah they go ok with their products. I’ve got one of their boards killing it in a 2x2 space.

Some extra far red and it would be the perfect light for me, spectrum would be spotfknon. Will grab some far red strips or a couple far red QB's when i can to add to the mix.

Hey guys, I've got a question for the hydro-gang:

I'm using Canna Coco nutrients A/B for some of my girls (& the chillies - also in Coco).

If I were to make-up a concentrate of all the bits I'm using in advance (not just simply mixing A/B together, which I know is a no-no) & then dilute that concentrate to "normal" strength, would I have any problems? I'm thinking I could spend some time making-up multiple 2L "batches" of concentrate & keep them for dilution down to normal/half/quarter strength as required.

Thoughts?

Been growing hydro for years, have never mixed concentrates and stored them but have mixed concentrates and then added water straight after with no noticeable side effects.

I’ve heard a lot of things like “always add cal/mag 1st”, never mix A&B together in concentrate form”, “Allow your potassium silicate to rest for x amount of time as ph will swing for a while”

I use advanced nutrients ph perfect for hydro and coco. It’s base nutes and I think their cal/mag are chelated so maybe this is why I haven’t noticed any negative effects?

But I personally wouldn’t mix all my concentrates together as you need to feed your plants with different boosters etc at different times of their life and at different strengths depending on your plants requirements.
May work if you are fully dialled in and have Only plants that have been cloned from the 1 mother and mix seperate bottles of concentrate for different stages of their lives.....?

that’s just my opinion. ;)

Agree with Reza!
New growth looks good from what I can see, keep the coco moist. When it dries out the nute/water ratio increases (ppm in your coco goes up) can see a bit of nute burn on the tips of your leaves but nothing too bad :cool:

Don’t do it. You’ll probably get fallout or lockout issues. The reason it’s generally shipped in 2 bottles is because at higher concentrations they obviously don’t mix very well but at low concentrations it’s fine.
