Confused Man Needing Handholding Here by: Anonymous
"The guy I know who uses this formula mixes all of the ingredients together, than adds them to his nutrient reservoir a little at a time until he gets the nutrient strength where he wants it. For the record, DO NOT mix normal hydroponic nutrients together in this way....they will chemically combine to each other and lock out all of the nutrients (that's why they come in two separate bottles)."
Do you mean don't put them in at the same time? I am a dumb when it comes to this kind of thing. Do I just wait a few hours then add the rest?
Added Response: You can add the hydroponic nutrients to your reservoir (full of water) at the same time, but you should NEVER mix full strength nutrients with each other before putting them in the water. At full strength, they will tend to chemically combine to one another, locking the nutrients out and doing your plants no good.

We use only Organic Liquid Fertilizer in our Aeroponic System by: Gardens on Air
We firmly agree. We are currently using a low pressure tower aeroponic system for our crops, and other than the initial cleaning out of the jets when the system first became operational, I have had no other issues with clogging.
