Sir Harley Smith! Thank you for knowledge you share!!! Could we ask. For optimal EC and NPK ratio for hydro environment. And which way is better to mix nutrients? like most user do 1-base nutes 2- other additives. or like calmag silica, phosphates and at final base! Thanks from Russian grow intusiasts!
If using a potassium silicate, add that first then adjust pH down, then add your base nutrients, then your additives. check pH, adjust if necessary, then add microbes, then water your plants.
good stuff as always Harley people just don't get it with a little education you can relay see great results you do not have to over feed you just take a little here and there and get great results....Besides the Nutrients are some of the formula of a great grower but a education can go a long way to outstanding results and relay bring out the master grower in you.
+NPK Industries Hi Harley would you recommend potassium and nitrogen for the entire growth? If so, would that increase the yields and make them better quality??
Hi there. To some degree yes, your plants need Nitrogen and Potassium through the entire grow, but in bloom, most growers will have enough nitrogen in their base nutrient, or from a Calcium/Mag source. Added Potassium is very beneficial in mid-late bloom when the plants are using the most of it.
pH fluctuation is natural and can be because of temp swings or, your plants uptaking nutrients (mainly potassium) that will cause pH to swing. Just check and adjust daily and swap nutrients weekly. Some growers will add a bit of potassium mid-week to replace what was taken out of the solution.
I like the imperial system but please include measurements in grams as well.
Please do an experiment video longer than a min. Perhaps several plants foliar fed various RAW products v.s. a control.
We appreciate the feedback. We do have more plans in the works and will unveil them sometime this year... stay tuned!

Wise words. Thanks for following us!

NPK Industries thank you much!!
and please. what means if ph goes down in dwc and what if ph goes up? ec low? ec high?

NPK Industries Thanks for attention!:)
When you say add a little yucca ? How much is a little 1/8?
the package says 1/16 -1/8 per 5 gallons of water
can I use the nitrogen on lawns?
yes, lawns love it!
What would the rate for lawns be? 1/8 tsp per gallon seems so low
I know this is probably a dumb question but will mixing it this way make the mix 50-0-0?
All good. No, the product is 20-0-0 as a dry powder, when you add to water, it would go waaaay lower, depending on how much water you add.
NPK Industries thanks for the reply. I will be picking up a bag tomorrow 👌
