Is it readily water soluble, and can it be used in hydroponics

It is readily water soluble. I don't know about hydroponics. You would likely need to use a weaker dilution than is specified for normal use.

VERY soluble in water. Never tried it on hydroponics but have used it on Pathos plans growing in water.

Yes it is very soluble. it could be used for hydroponics but not the best. Jacks 16-4-17 or its new name Oasis Hydroponic Fertilizer 16-4-17

No its not just for hydro, I use it in soil-less mix (sunshine advance 4). I use it in week 2 of bloom at 5ml per gal. Hope this helps.

Yeah it's used for soil based set ups. There's another fox farm grow big product just for hydroponic set ups and the bottle is blue.

You can use it for either but it is more for soil as this mix will probably clog up your hydo system. FF makes another veg formula that is specific to hydo with a blue label.

This isn't really hydroton but yes you can mix it with soil to aid in aeration. I've done this before on plants of all kinds with great success. Just be sure to water slightly more often because the soil will dry out faster due to added aeration. I suggest a ratio of .25:1 to 1:1 (pellets:soil). You can also put them on top of the soil to act as a mulch (works great with tomatoes) and at the bottom of the pot for added drainage.

Greetings,Only knowing the hydroponic basics, I can see the incorporation of the LECA into such system. I use LECA in the water trays of my African Violets and Begonias, and in the pots of my Orchids very succesfully indoors. My home is kept at a low humidity from the standard, and the LECA has worked remarkably well keeping constant humidity control around the plant. I have noticed a remarkable positive improvement in a month of use. Hope my answer is helpful to you.

No maybe 50% at best. It has a strong dead fish smell. Outdoor use only. Not for hydroponics.

No. I do not know of any 100% organic hydroponic nutrient solutions. There may be some out there, but I don't know. I do try to use organically when I can, but I worry much more about non organic pesticides than non organis fertilizer. This is a good product. Check out MHP gardener on YouTube. He has some excellent videos and uses this stuff for all his hydroponics.

No. The chelating agent is likely Fe-EDTA, which is not only slightly toxic, but is only effective at low ph, making it useless for aquaponics. What you need is Fe-DTPA, which is effective up to 7.5 ph; or the more expensive Fe-EDDHA which is effective up to 9 ph. For a system around a 100g or less, 8 to 16 oz will last you years. I bought 16 oz for 19.95 with free shipping. Be careful, I ran across one listed as DTPA that said EDTA in the description, and nothing about use in aquaponics.

Probably not. The fungus needs to be in soil, as it feeds on dead organic matter which releases nutrients to the plants. A hydroponic solution does not contain anything to nourish the fungus, and is made up of water and water soluble inorganic chemicals which are already accessible to the plants and don't need to be broken down further.

I am not familiar with bubbleponics but I have not had any problems like that with my hydroponic tank. The powder quickly dissolves. If you are concerned about this, you could mix it in a small container of water and then pour it in

Yes. It is completely safe to use on edible and non-edible plants. It is actually used in organic gardening.

No def not. After a few weeks of using it as a supplement in hydroponics, I quit due to micronutrient toxicities.

I would imagine that it could be mixed into any liquid...like pancake batter or the cereals you mentioned. It dissolves quite well in a little water. I'd even sprinkle it on cooked veggies.

It can, but the roots will eventually dip into the water, become over hydrated, dragon claw and die. If you want a DIY aeroponics, look for the 4in square fence post instructions that are floating around on the internet ;-)

Thanks. I have the super grow and am confused re: the solubility. You say water soluble, www.rarexoticseeds.com says 70% rubbing alcohol and mbfert.com says KOH only. Who is right, and how an I believe them. Thanks.

Yes, you can. I would dissolve it in water first, then add it to the water you fill it with.
