I have been using miracle grow all purpose, as the base of my hydro solution. How much should be added per gallon, to get the numbers they post? Have been using half of what they say for outdoor plants. Which works out, with other additives, to around 1500 ppm, including about 300 for the tap water.

Seems to do fine, but want to make sure I am on track.

Thanks!!!

I used the same shit when I started in DWC. I used 1/4 tsp per gallon during early veg, which is half of the indoor watering can recipe and it worked fine.

MG makes water soluble nutes you can use in hydro... I think everyone always thinks of time release balls soil nutes when they hear MG. In fact, my seedlings were starting to yellow and wilt in a nute-less soil solo cup until I transplanted to DWC with mild MG nutes and they took off super fast in a day or two.

Miracle Gro = marijuana herbicide

If you absolutely insist on using commercial chem nutes for hydro, I would definitely go with one of the Peters products.

Products like Miracle Gro simply do not work in hydroponics. They are made from the wrong forms of nitrogen and they are not complete formulas. Your 'yield' (assuming you managed to keep them alive long enough to harvest something) would be 1/10th that of hydroponic fertilizer.
