How to mix Hydroponic nutrients easy and simple

How to mix Hydroponic nutrients easy and simple

For lots more information Check out my Website! https://ruddshomefarming.com

This is how I mix a 3-part hydroponics nutrient solution for the Kratky method of hydroponics.

Floragrow uses an npk mix to give the best hydroponic feeding for vegetables and other plants so you do not need to use potting mix or soil.

Growing hydroponically is surprisingly a clean way to grow plants indoors using the Kratky method. The pests are few and you will never have to worry about gnats! I want to Emphasize never to mix the concentrates together.

The Kratky method of hydroponics is the simplest way to grow indoors at home.

You just submerge the grow medium in the water and allow the plant roots to grow into the solution. the only maintenance is topping off the container with more nutrients as the plan uses it up.

Thank you for taking the time to follow my hydroponic nutrient guide.

  2. Bryon Unroe on July 5, 2023 at 9:16 pm

    Could you grow your plant in the 5 gallon solution you made



  3. Atharva Moharir on July 5, 2023 at 9:16 pm

    Do we need to directly pump this solution to plants?
    Very new to this concept please explain thank you



  4. David Schaeffer on July 5, 2023 at 9:19 pm

    Thanks man. Simple. I am a simple guy too. Thanks for the information and the video!



  5. dino muzio on July 5, 2023 at 9:21 pm

    Is this harmful to your vegetables and to humans



  6. jstyles510 on July 5, 2023 at 9:22 pm

    Fill the bucket up with 5 gallon of water first.



  7. Francine Belanger on July 5, 2023 at 9:26 pm

    Tu ne chĆØque pas ton PH et ton PPM.



  8. Jonathon Dunn on July 5, 2023 at 9:29 pm

    Awesome thanks



  9. Theresa Justice on July 5, 2023 at 9:29 pm

    Do you do a PH Test with the Indicator? And is it necessary?



  10. Travis Saldana on July 5, 2023 at 9:31 pm

    This viedo helped me out a lot man thank u so much



  11. HB on July 5, 2023 at 9:31 pm

    Thanks for sharing! Just one thing that I believe someone else mentioned, you should be using a teaspoon (5ml) not a tablespoon šŸ™‚



  12. ed on July 5, 2023 at 9:32 pm

    Is this just for Kratky? the labels only say to use equal parts for early stage, after which you use the 3-2-1 method.



  13. Jongg Growss420 on July 5, 2023 at 9:33 pm

    So u mix it like that threw the whole grow



  14. The Truth on July 5, 2023 at 9:35 pm

    Iā€™m very new can you mix other brands in substitute for each bottle , I have a lot of randoms I donā€™t want to waste and just starting



  15. joyce lopez on July 5, 2023 at 9:36 pm

    Thank you so much for showing all of us how to mix the nutrients my first time using this brand of solutions so thank you.



  16. Paul Davis on July 5, 2023 at 9:36 pm

    First time growing hydroponics I have a 5gallon bucket step up so do I just put my plant in that solution and keep the pH checked how often should I add more nuits



  17. James Gates on July 5, 2023 at 9:37 pm

    Thanks that really help me understand now thank you.



  18. Sean Davis on July 5, 2023 at 9:39 pm

    Thanks



  19. Robā€™s Reviews on July 5, 2023 at 9:40 pm

    1 tsp each per gallon wouldnā€™t that be 15 tsp in total? At least for a 5 gallon bucket?



  20. jstyles510 on July 5, 2023 at 9:44 pm

    Do a 2-3-1 part method.



  21. Triston Herrera on July 5, 2023 at 9:45 pm

    Pretty sure you donā€™t wanna use soft water. From what Iā€™ve read it basically kills the plant because the donā€™t absorb the water for some reason. I guess the plant thinks it does but it doesnā€™t



  22. Joseph Dolan on July 5, 2023 at 9:45 pm

    Possible to use the green solution on its own?



  23. FREDO MGMT on July 5, 2023 at 9:46 pm

    Like everything about the video adding water in between actual makes alot of sense only problem is when u measure your nutrients make sure you dont do it over the bucket incase you spill an then messes the who mix up! Just a tip of advice!!!



  24. Brendan Gilbert on July 5, 2023 at 9:48 pm

    I found your presentation easy to follow.



  25. 777Dorado on July 5, 2023 at 9:49 pm

    Its not ready…..you have to PH it….,Great Vid though.



  26. JAY Van Vranken on July 5, 2023 at 9:51 pm

    Would it be the with 3 and a half gallons of water



  27. Lucas Johnson on July 5, 2023 at 9:51 pm

    big note:
    Dont use "softened water" for hydroponics
    these systems use salt to make the water soft, wich causes particle isolation.. much like rose pedals floating together in a pond, your nutrients will float together in clumps wich will be too large for your plants to absorb. this is what you refer to ass "nutrient lock" always avoid anything salty! (the same thing happens in our bodies btw, causing things like fat build up) šŸ™‚

    still got a thumbs up from me tho! great and simple instructive video

  30. Valerie Sanchez on July 5, 2023 at 9:52 pm

    I get an unusual slime algae in my reservoir using this blend.
    Masterblend is more forgiving.



  31. Kevin Foster on July 5, 2023 at 9:53 pm

    What are the measurements for letā€™s say a one gallon mix vs a 5 gallon mix?



  32. Austin Cline on July 5, 2023 at 9:53 pm

    Really good video!



  33. Leanne on July 5, 2023 at 9:55 pm

    Can you pre-mix a large batch of this for future watering?



  34. lllScottlll on July 5, 2023 at 9:57 pm

    Why you have to look me up and down like that in the beginning tho



  35. mark palkowski on July 5, 2023 at 9:57 pm

    i just got my first system,how do you start the seeds?



  36. Dorftrottel on July 5, 2023 at 9:58 pm

    thx, and when to use a ph & ec meter (first setup)



  37. Joshua Byrum on July 5, 2023 at 9:58 pm

    Iā€™m sorry bro but you canā€™t just round up to 6 tablespoons per gallon if the plants are not ready for that amount of nutrient. The General hydroponics system is meant to be followed to the T. Each stage of your plants life the amount of nutrients will change and you need to follow that very closely. I may not to be as experienced as this guy but Iā€™ve grown my fair share of plants and I have been using General hydroponics for over 15 years now. They are literally the best nutrients for hydroponics that you can buy. Also they came out with some additional nutrients to go along with these three bass nutrients which makes your plants just so much better I canā€™t even explain.Guys please remember when measuring your nutrients for hydroponics they need to be on point no rounding up no rounding down none of that if it calls for 1 teaspoon per gallon thatā€™s what it should get

    Hi ,all I want to know is about the grow light all I have is a window ,stove top ,top of a small fridge, so I m interested in those type which are goose neck ,which is a best quality. I m struggling financially, and I cannot waste I’m starting small and slowly to see how I’m adjusting to this I want to do both method using coco choir ,in cups then pots or jar .I know I will work on this but I want about the grow light,my stove is not those type with the top light .I don’t know if I will put anything in my kichen because it is hot .I live in Rural NY.THANK YOU.



  39. SlingBlade Doyle on July 5, 2023 at 10:01 pm

    DO NOT BUY THIS SHIT. IT MAKES YOUR PLANTS STOP PRODUCING FLOWERS / FRUITS WEEK 4 OF FLOWER CYCLE. SMALL FRUITS AND FLOWERS SMALL.



  40. Canā€™tstopWontstop on July 5, 2023 at 10:02 pm

    Hey if Iā€™m just using bloom and bud candy it says tsp per gallon for the bloom I just use a 2 gallon can so should I put a tsp of bloom and a tsp of bud candy or 2tsp of each?



  41. Saud Asiri on July 5, 2023 at 10:03 pm

    Can I use this for my soil plant?



  42. David Calvert on July 5, 2023 at 10:04 pm

    Do you ever add to your mix when water evaporates



  43. Adrian Fierro on July 5, 2023 at 10:05 pm

    Iā€™m going to try this with happy frog soul how often do I change my soil every 3 months?



  44. Brian Chesser on July 5, 2023 at 10:09 pm

    Can this mix be used for soil?



  45. Jeremy Hughes on July 5, 2023 at 10:10 pm

    after you mix your nutrients all together and letā€™s say your ppm isnā€™t as high as you would like would it be okay to add all 3 micro grow and bloom to raise it up?



  46. 3WOOPS on July 5, 2023 at 10:10 pm

    how often should I water with the nutrients?



  47. Mick Healy on July 5, 2023 at 10:14 pm

    mate old imperial weighs and measure sucks dogs balls..



  48. edmoe122 on July 5, 2023 at 10:14 pm

    how often do you change the water ?



  49. David Sharpless on July 5, 2023 at 10:14 pm

    How long can you leave it in the bucket before you have to use the mix ?



  50. La Gondola Hosteria, MontaƱita- Ecuador on July 5, 2023 at 10:15 pm

    Do you mix with flora Bloom solution in vegetative stage Also?
