You guys are hilarious...I don't know what miracle gro you are looking at the back of...but miracle gro has every mineral a plant could ever need and then some...
Ammonium phosphate
Urea
Potassium chloride
Boric acid
Copper sulfate
Iron EDTA
Magnesium EDTA
Urea phosphate
Zinc sulfate
Sodium molybdate
The percentage breakdown is as follows:
Total Nitrogen: 15%
9.2% urea nitrogen
5.8% ammonium nitrogen
Available phosphate: 30%;
Boron: .02%;
Soluble Potash: 15%;
Copper: .07%;
Iron: .15%;
Manganese: .05%;
Molybdenum: .00005%;
Zinc: .06%.
If you are using any complete line of nutes then it has everything...so when you think you have a deficiency it is usually an overage..
Like right now you have nute burn...you will notice the leaves are dead and it is moving in...growth is slow...and of course you have slime in your rez...it is clear...that is the first nono...light on water makes algae always...add to that that you are putting plant feeding nutrients and air into that water, and DWCs are all waiting ot culticate some algae to choke off your plants...all they need is a little light....
So get a not clear rez, and stop worrying so much..right now you have overnuted them...if you need to raise or lower your pH you need to order or buy a bottle of pH down..it is crazy cheap and easy to find...any garden store will have it...go to a nursery and ask them...they will have some...
