Making your own nutrients and UC Roots

[Armdog]

Just found this on the net,. Looks like someone has reversed engineered the name brand nutrients.

DIY your own name brand nutrients

I don’t take credit for these formulas, as they belong to “MisterBlah” from another forum, but they’re worth sharing. He did an amazing job on these! GENERAL HYDROPONICS FLORA GRO 2-1-6 Potassium Nitrate: 115,296.60 mg/l Magnesium Nitrate: 49,408.67 mg/l Mono Potassium Phosphate: 19,228.66...

Ive been mixing my own dry in water for a long time now. You can easily make your own calmag.

If you buy bottled liquid nutes your taking it straight up the brown eye with no lube.

Massive mark up for just adding water.

Love my jacks

Love my jacks

Very easy to use. Mixes so much better than mega

So ive read, ph is pretty dam stable as well with the jacks, after running like 7 bottles of an nutes in my first run i figured out that mixing dry is definitely my prefered method, pretty easy to tailor to individual feed needs and its dirt cheap lol cant go wrong

Hypoclorous avid is -according to that article - what is in uc roots .... Just not sure of correct percentage of what is available out there ????

 

[Armdog]

UC Roots: to make your own 0.028% hypochlorous acid solution from a 12.5% sodium hypchlorite solution by weight (15% by volume), add 7mL per gallon.

 

[angel4us]

Not sure what that means .... take 15 ml pure hypochlorous acid(if liquid ) and 85 ml of r/o water( or distilled)..... OR if it comes solid (dry) then go by weight 12.5%......and yes use 7 ml per galllon

I use 7ml per gallon of 12.5% liquid and it works great. I don't use the dry. Powder

I only use it for cloning

My UC roots ppm is 3720 ppm directly out of the jug.

I guess add enough hypochlorous acid to reach that amount.

Due to its high pH, sodium hypochlorite increases water pH. As described in the previous article (chlorine disinfection), the reaction of sodium hypochlorite with water results in two forms: HOCl (hypochlorous acid) and OCl-. The ratio between HOCl and OCl- depends on the pH

Cultured Solutions UC Roots
This is a 0.028% solution of hypchlorous acid. Most likely created via a solution of sodium hypochlorite. There’s been a fair amount of documentation in the hydroponics world about the uses and benefits of sodium hypochlorite. Look for them somewhere else.

To make your own 0.028% hypochlorous acid solution from a 12.5% sodium hypchlorite solution by weight (15% by volume), add 7mL per gallon.

12.5% sodium hypochlorite: 7mL/gal (1.86mL/L

This is what I use and it works great

Hope this helps you out

I don't know how many ml are in a gallon but at 7ml per gallon you will have a bunch of UC roots product

 

[angel4us]

It’s 18$ a gallon but there is hazmat charge so it’s 53$ total .... uc roots is 54$ / gallon not really saving anything

You mix 7ml of the sodium hypochlorite to 1 gallon of water to make 1 gallon of UC roots

Now yes I can see that would last long time !!!!
