Re: Nutrients in the netherlands

["James Purchase" <jppurchase at rogers_com>]

Wil is looking for a souce for nutrients.

Homegrown Hydroponics (http://www.hydroponics.com/) has everything you'll
need in their "Six Pack", which is listed in their price list in the
Nutrients section. The cost is $25.00 Canadian. I'm sure that they would be
more than happy to ship to the Netherlands. They have secure online
ordering.

All of the chemicals in the "Six Pack" are "Greenhouse Grade" or better.
That means that they will all dissolve in water without leaving a residue
(cheaper, "Field Grade" chemicals often have insoluable components).

The components of the "Six Pack" are as follows:
#1 Calcium Nitrate Decahydrate - 5 Ca(NO3)2 + NH4NO3 + 10 H2O
#2 Potassium Sulphate - K2SO4
#3 Potassium Nitrate - KNO3
#4 Mono Potassium Phosphate - KH2PO4
#5 Magnesium Sulphate Heptahydrate - MgSO4 + 7 H20
#6 Trace Element Mix
   Fe - 7.0 %
   Mn - 2.0 %
   Zn - 0.4 %
   Cu - 0.10 %
   B  - 1.30 %
   Mo - 0.06 %

Not all of the chemicals are called for in the original PMDD formula, but
most of us have moved beyond the "basic" formula anyway and each of these
has its use.
