Reusing Nutrients?

Discussion in 'First Time Marijuana Growers' started by Dank0ne, Jan 9, 2007.

  1. How long can you reuse nutrient solutions for? i have a half gallon jug that i mixed with nutrients about a week ago, can i still use this to water my plants?
     
  2. Best to use it within 24 hours of mixing, or so I've always heard.
     
  3. Do you know the logic behind that? I figured if the nutes in their container are good for years, why does it make it any different that theyre mixed in water?
     
  4. I suppose once dissolved and diluted into water that they could more easily dissipate into the atmosphere (which is mostly nitrogen, after all) or break down somehow, but I have nothing to base that on.
