just mixed a gal of nutes (organic) how long will they last??

title says it all just mixed it up have a gallon extra how long will it stay good for? few days? please and thank you

How long will they last until what? They smell bad? They'll smell bad pretty fast...

With no aeration you can start growing some nasty anaerobic bacteria that when consumed could make you very very sick - Luckily you wont be drinking your nutrients. They should last until you use them. PH might fluctuate but that's about it.

Run an airstone in them. Just alone they get nasty.

agree with gas tanker.. they will get pretty nasty in a few days / week tops ime..

eggcellent thanks guys..just making sure they needed to hold over a few days or else i would just dump them out which is what i did before cause when i looked threw the water it looked like someone blew a load in it..either way much appreciated

you should use all your mixed nutes within 24 hours for maximum effect.

i read that it will be good up to 5-7 days as long as kept in a dark cool place, and to shake it up (not vigorously) when your about to use it again.. but HappyHarvesters may have a good point about max effect within 24 hours
