Keeping Mixed Nutes

Hey,
Once you mix your nutes and water and feed your plants,can you keep your unused mixed nutes and re-use them at a later date? Or do you pour the rest down the drain?

Good question.. I give the unused nutes to all of my houseplants. Im not sure about actually storing the nutes and using them later.

Chemical nutes are fine, just keep them from getting hot and preferably keep them in as air tight of a container as possible. Heat above the upper 80's will cause calcium carbonate precipitation. CO2 uptake will cause bicarbonate formation.
