Looking for input on a new way to change my nutrient mix in my DWC grow...

Hey GWE community! I have a 10 gallon DWC system and I was looking for input on doing my nutrient change.

Which is a better way to change out your nutrients... Pre-mix in two 5-gallon jugs then pour into the reservoir OR fill the reservoir with plain water and add nutrients directly? What do you all think?

I mix my nutes before adding them to my rez.
That allows me to ensure everything is mixed and ph'd to where I want it.

Hey there,

typically when I change water (25L per bucket), I add 15L first containing the silicon additive I use,
the next 10L has the pH down to bring the combined 25L to pH of around 5.9.

once the bucket is at capacity and pH, then I add the rest.

as I use fulvic acid and seaweed, i add those first before CalMag and the 3part GH flora.

hope that helps.
