SUGGESTED FEEDING CONCENTRATIONS
Remember to also consider plant stage, pot size, leaching fraction and environmental conditions when applying suggested rates. The quality of your water source will also affect overall feed rates, frequency and other additions in order to achieve optimum growth.
TANK MIXING RATES FOR PPM
Amount of dry fertilizer (oz.) to add to tank to make a ready-to-use solution.
SUGGESTED FEEDING CONCENTRATIONS
NITROGEN PARTS PER MILLION
| PPM | OZ / 10 gal | OZ / 100 gal |
|---|---|---|
| 50 ppm | .35 | 0.5 |
| 100 ppm | 0.5 | 5 |
| 200 ppm | 1.0 | 10 |
| 300 ppm | 2.0 | 20 |
Limit of solubility = 3 lbs. per gallon
NITROGEN PARTS PER MILLION
| Injector Setting | E.C. Value | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Desired N Feed Rate | 1:15 | 1:100 | 1:200 | (mmhos) |
| 50 ppm | .75 | 5.0 | 10.0 | .27 |
| 100 ppm | 1.50 | 10.0 | 20.0 | .54 |
| 200 ppm | 3.00 | 20.0 | 40.0 | 1.8 |
IMPORTANT NOTES
E.C. value is the best method to determine fertilizer strength. Fertilizer appearance may vary in color due to variation in raw material size and tracer dye distribution upon the particles in the bag. In solution, color will remain consistent.
