Time to DIY Dry Fert ;)
Im finally finishing my pfertz supply of high tech +.
Basically means im going to start my own DIY or follow something else. There are many out there, trying to figure out whats the easiest to use. Also, would love to re-use my pfertz bottles Going to head out soon to buy myself measuring spoons and going to find myself a vitamin box thing... I want to prepare my doses in advance for the week(s) (if i do straight up dry doses and not use liquids) since i wake up very early in the morning and dont feel like measuring every bit :P At my disposal i have, Aquarium Fertilizer(brand), Potassium Nitrate Mono potassium phosphate Potassium Sulfate The Plant Guy Ferts Magnesium Sulfate 13% chelated Iron Micro-Nutrient Mix GH Booster Blend Ebay Urea Nitrate OTHER Seachem Excel Seachem Equilibrium Flourish Comprehensive Thanks, sorry for the headaches!v ![]() p.s: i need to dose magnesium. |

Looks like you have quite the arsenal at your disposal.
I would recommend against using the urea nitrate, however.

I've been loving these containers for my dry ferts. 5 weeks at a time (3x macro, 3x micro). Individually capped, so I can just grab and dump.
This picture is a little out of date, because I switched to 3x micro, so instead of 6 weeks (as shown) I now have 5 weeks measured out:

Urea nitrate is bad because urea breaks down into ammonia, which can be toxic to livestock.
