Best "easily" accessible nute for seedlings/Kratky?
Hi Guys
I came across this thread while looking for alternatives for Micro, Bloom and Grow. Nutrifeed and Nitrosol were mentioned here quite some time ago(2014!) so I have some questions:
Which is the best of the 2(for those that have tried each)?
Are there other, similar alternatives(in case i missed them) that can be sourced locally that are known to work well?
I am planning on growing some super hot peppers and would like to get my seedlings going using the double cup method along with setting some of the plants up using the Kratky method.
Any info/advice regarding the nute's is most welcome!
TIA
Don

Nutrifeed Feeding Chart
There isnt a feeding chart for Nutrifeed
You should consider using a TDS/EC Meter to gauge nutrient strength while referencing to a chart like this one pH/ TDS / PPM / EC Levels for Hydroponic Vegetables for the variety of plant you are growing.
We offer a wide variety of hydroponic nutrients for gardeners in South Africa.

Oh by the way have you seen this Dutch Bucket?
Hope this helps!

It's up to you how you use it but buckets or containers are always useful for hydro. Smaller ones can be modified for Dutch buckets perhaps and larger ones would be nice as reservoirs. You'll have to watch some YouTube vids and decide for yourself how you can make best use of everything.
