Hi,
I start learning Hydroponic gardening few months ago. I live in an apartment building with a small balcony in Hong Kong. I have built a 10-holes PVC tube NFT system and wishing to plant strawberry, cucumber, tomato, pepper and maybe some herbs. In Hong Kong I can easily buy chemicals but not commercial ready mixed Hydroponic nutrient. I can order from U.S.or U.K. but the freight charges are too expensive and not worth for a hobbyist.I came across a book written by Mr. Keith Roberto with the following nutrient formulas and hope any experts can give me the PPM of each salts.
Vegetative (9.5-5.7-11.3)
Ca(NO3)2 6 grams
KNO3 2.09 grams
K2SO4 0.46 grams
KH2PO4 1.39 grams
MgSO4*7H2O 2.42 grams
Fruiting Nutrient (8.2-5.9-13.6)
Ca(NO3)2 8 grams
KNO3 2.80 grams
K2SO4 1.70 grams
KH2PO4 1.39 grams
MgSO4*7H2O 2.40 grams
Flowering Nutrient (5.5-7.97-18.4)
Ca(NO3)2 4.10 grams
KNO3 2.80 grams
K2SO4 0.46 grams
KH2PO4 1.39 grams
MgSO4*7H2O 2.40 grams
All above add up with Trace Element
Fe EDTA 7%
Mn 2%
Zn 0.40%
Cu 0.10%
B Mo 0.06%
All these to make 1.00 Gallon of Final Nutrient Solution.
Thank you and hope someone can help me.
