I wouldn't leave it over a week, less if it's over 65 degrees. algae and bacteria can build up in nutes real fast, I know from experience.

If you see even a hint of mold chuck the whole container. you'll never get it out unless you have a pressure cooker that size

hey wesmkdro, i was wondering this same thing, if i have a batch a nutrients that sits around too long it seems to form something, maybe mold after about 5 days, so i would say the shorter the better

anyone else have suggestions?

get an air pump and stone and drop it in the container with the nutes

I know that Liquid Karma is bad after 24 hours of sitting mixed but "Boost" by canna has to be used with 7 days, so I would say it is different per product. I usually only let my mixed water sit no longer than 24 hours unless it's for foliar feeding.

my mix sits in the res for about 1 week but i have a circulating pump in it.
