With this pek acid product, how much do you apply per gallon of nutrient solution at a target EC of about 2.0, pH around 6.0?
A better question to ask might be how do I best use it with a multi part dry nutrient regimen?

tell me again what your mixing and how much... don't forget the mpk

my tap water ph is about 7.3
to bring it down to 5.6 (give or take) I have to use about 0.75 grams per gallon
which yields
52 ppm phosphorus
33 ppm potassium
I believe it might be soluable in both parts A & B formulas so you can put it in either stock solution but I could be wrong ... but I put it in stock solution B same is I would the mpk and sulphates and micros

chlorine
I forget what the proper safe dose is... I stopped using it few years back but if your nnot in soil and your not organic bleach will work
I want to guess that maybe it was 1ml/gallon but I cant say for sure that was it
if you do some internet searching you might find it
hydrogen peroxide is an alternative but hard to keep up with dosing every day and may not be as effective as the zone
are you having root issues? whats your set up?

No Chlorine in the Gold Range Zone. Potassium Nitrate/ Copper Sulfate.

ok...heres the thing... the nutes listed on the product have nothing to do with what is sterilizing your roots and might as weill not be in it
copper does have an effect on mildew but its mild
DM zone has a chemical in it similar to chlorine only it has a longer half life so that itll remain active in your res longer than chlorine

You may be right. I know copper sulfate is a anti-microbial. Same thing they use in Spin-Out for root pruning

wow you must have a very low ph in your tap water.....what is it?
what are you using to bring the ph up?
this is the grow formula?? what about flower?
for now..give me the 3 numbers on each bottle
for example the grow might be
7-0-11
I don't care about the rhizo info its irrelevant
liquid karma..what is that kelp?
I will have to peak at these products quick, I don't know what the hydro is for either..i will check it out

The pH of my water out the system is 6.5. I use general hydro down and techno flora up. Bc i have RO water literally one drop off ph down makes a huge difference. PH up not as much
