Outside Hydroponic

marriedtomary · Feb 11, 2009

I have a hydroponic garden outside and i was just wondering if anybody could help me with some information.

I use nutrients in the water, there is no medium for water to be held in the pots. i just have it running alot. also the water is recycled into a closed metal container. i was wondering if the sun is bleaching the nutrients out of the water? How often do you think i should change the water? and if i should over time be adding more nutrients to the water due to some other loss. also, Is there a way to find out how many parts per mill are in the water at any givin time long after they have been measured and added to the water.

HMMMMM pretend your garden in inside and treat it as such. Hydro is Hydro read & research your problems and you will be ok.

If you want to make the two hour trip you could check out their huge outdoor grow they've got going on. Rubbermaid garbage cans filled with nutes, huge pumps to keep the place running. Nice set up. oh, and they're located in Ocala.

good luck.
