Plz assist for the lines in (((((((((( )))))))))): Make up the following Stock solutions: 1. Ca(NO3)2.4H2O 236.1 g/l 2. KNO3 101.1 g/l 3. KH2PO4 136.1 g/l 4. MgSO4.7H2O 246.5 g/l (((((((((( This will be our 1st stock solution: (mAcronutrients) ?
5. Trace elements (make up to 1 L)

| Hi azee, Your chemical formulas numbered (by you) 1 - 6 are each a "stock". You only mix together those chemicals that Hoagland tells you to put in a single stock. You are supposed to keep these 6 stocks separate until ready to use. When ready to fertilize, then you mix the ratio of mL Hoagland specifies of each stock together into each 1 liter of water. The stock bottles made up are for you to come & get the fertilizer you need. But, they keep their individual chemical properties best if are not all stored mixed together in one bottle. I did not do the calculation of ppm (parts per million, of total dissolved solids in the water) this fertilizer will equal. This seems like a general formula. (When you research more you will find that ppm for individual types of crops is something you can fine tune. With your stocks made up, & kept separate, you will then be able to adjust the individual ppm nutrient ratios you add to the water.) You asked how much to use in your different reservoirs. The short answer is: at first make each reservoir have a nutrient solution, containing all the specific ml of all the stocks, in the ratios of concentration that Hoagland said to add to each litre of water you want to have. |
