I've used this with good results. One bag lasts forever too.

That stuff needs soil bacteria to decompose it into usable fertilizer and is designed to supplement soil grows. If you need organic, General Hydroponics has a line of nutrients that will work. If you need dry powder and organic, I have no idea.

If you don't need organic, Masterblend's 3-part formula is your best bet as it's super cheap and effective. If you want a 1-part, Maxigrow is good.

I really like this stuff:https://www.amazon.ca/General-Hydroponics-MaxiGro-Gardening-2-2-Pound/dp/B00NQANQAC

For whatever reason my local "gardening" store sells it for much cheaper than amazon, I've had stellar results with not just weed.

A little goes a long way with this stuff even at 30 bucks you'll have fertilizer for years.

Hey thanks for the reply! I do have a similar setup where the pH did not drop as drastically. The difference in this setup was that I was using a much weaker 5000k light, and there were only 5 basil plants in the tower vs the 10 I currently have. The prior setup also only had a 5 gallon (19 litre) tank where as the current setup has 10 gallons (37 litre). I can create a graph of the pH and EC of the prior setup and post it here if you'd like?

Edit: This is the nutrient brand I used in both setups. https://www.amazon.com/General-Hydroponics-MaxiGro-Gardening-2-2-Pound/dp/B00NQANQAC/ref=sr_1_3_acs_ac_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1539889673&sr=8-3-acs&keywords=hydroponics+nutrients Maxi-Grow by General Hydroponics. Followed the directions of 1 small tsp per gallon.

Nah. Get some real hydroponics nutrients. Miracle grow is a soil additive.

I highly recommend Maxigrow by General Hydroponics.

That will allow the plant to grow like crazy in its vegetative stage. Then when you start to get flowers you can either stay with Maxigrow or change to Maxibloom (same company). Follow the instruction on the package for feeding.

Also, you might want to consider a larger bucket for your DWC your plants are going to be fighting for sunlight that crowded up, and some air stones/air pump to prevent root rot later in the plants life. The air agitation will also help mix any nutrients in your water and dissolves oxygen into the water.

Edited for some clarity on a few things

Here's what I have so far and my quick write up.

My dad started the tomato plant that I am using in soil. He had too many for his garden, so I used that instead of starting one from seed in rockwool. My next plant will be started from seed.

I picked up a 5 gal bucket and Lid from Home Depot. <$5.

I cut a hole in the Lid to fit the 3" Net Cups. I put one right in the center. I quickly found out the cup it too small to support the plant so I had to use a support stick. I just bought this 6" net cup bucket lid.

The plant is supported in Expanded Clay balls. I chose this material as apposed to 'Hydroton, Coco coir, Viagrow stones, pearlite...' because from my very little research I found the clay to be the most environmentally friendly and easiest to use, disclaimer: I could be very wrong here.

The nutrient solution used General Hydroponics Maxi Grow. Simple to use, add X scoops per X gal of water. I am about to switch to Maxi Bloom. She is flowering and starting to produce fruit. I do now know when the best time to switch solutions. I am learning by experiment here.

To keep the nutrient solution oxygenated, I used this Air pump,two of of these air stones, and tubing. Any items will do, I used this products because I know an employee of Penn Plax and got them for cost $. Any pump will work, I got a two outlet pump for future expansion.

You should also be sure to have the correct pH for your particular plant. Here is a chart and a great site. I used this pH Test Kit and pH adjust.

It's that simple. Right now the plant is outside and gets about 8 hours of sun. I plan on keeping it outside as long as possible, then will bring it in and have to choose a light source for it.


tl;dr What I used for my first DWC tomato plant experiment. Step 1: Click all links above. Step2: Buy. Step 3: Tomatoes

I use Rapid Rooters and the roots pop out within a couple days of sprouting or cloning. I also use MaxiGro. What nutes are you using?

u/heomir · 1 pointr/aerogarden

You can definitely use your own seeds and there is also no need to buy their expensive kit. There are much cheaper alternatives. Look at these links. baskets

True. I recommend this. Cheap, easy to use, and works well. I use it in veg with coco. You’ll legit never finish using the bag.
