    Khang...I LOVE your videos and I have been a fan for years now.....I don't know if you know this or not....but when using Masterblend...mixing and adding in the proper sequence is important...mix the masterblend and epsom salt first and dissolve///add it to the tank...then dissolve the calcium nitrate...dissolve and add it into the tank....if you mix them all together while concentrated...the calcium in the calcium nitrate will chemically combine with the sulfer in the epsom salt...and that makes calcium sulfate....its gypsum (drywall)...not all of the calcium will dissolve into the water...and the plants wont be able to get the calcium into its roots :)

  • @degraphed6153
    @degraphed6153 6 лет назад +1

    Tip for efficiency: Put the fertilizer into the container before anything else, the water you pour in will mix it plenty(one bucket of hot water first to dissolve everything, then one bucket or cold water to get it to room temp again. Additionally you don't have to re-adjust your ph after adding the fertilizers.

    • @hedgepethracing9590
      @hedgepethracing9590 2 года назад +1

      Nutrients should always be added to water, not a empty bucket. It you read the back of any 2 or 3 part nutrient schedule you will see there is a order to everything, than PH

  • @LocoBeeFPV
    @LocoBeeFPV 6 лет назад +1

    Not sure the air pumps would be necessary. You already started the plants with a kratky type method. I am doing a similar grow with Minnesota midget cantaloupe, but in a smaller container and no pumps.
    P.S. adjust PH after adding nutrient for a more accurate ph target.

Quick question: It looks like your ratios are a "little" higher than what I use for Master Blend? 3/3/2 per gallon of N, P, K respectively. Is that the usual ration you use or did you make adjustments because it is watermelon? I usually use 2/2/1 per gallon following MHP Gardener - but I might start using yours after watching your success!
