Hi,
Well, I want to make a house hydroponic system that I looked in Youtube and the guy in the video uses Peters fertilizer solution in his hydroponic system and it seems that worked well for him to grow peppers and tomatoes, is that a good nutrient solution? or not?.
Thanks.
After quite a bit of research on nutrients, I went with CNS17 to start.
I chose it because it contains all the required nutrients plus trace and is from a proven company.
It is also a complete package as opposed to mixing several different bottles. The change from plant cycles is accomplished by ppm dosages as opposed to buying additional nutrients.
I'll post results as I go along and this will be the first time growing with hydroponics.

Dany_mex, did some research of Peter's and it's not sold as a hydro fertilizer but they do carry some products that are water soluable so they should work. Will be interested to hear your results.
Halfway, Botanicare is a very reputable firm. A great deal of my equipment came from them. CNS17 is one of the very few complete hydro formula's out there but there are 5 different products in that line of nutrients. Changing from vegitative to fruiting stage requires more than just a change in PPM, there is a significant change in the N-P-K ratios required for plants which is why even the CNS17 line has grow and bloom products.
All the "grow" products will be fine for herbs and leafy plants but when you try and produce fruit ie, peppers, tomatoes etc. your gonna need and "bloom" product.
Best of luck to both of ya,

Hi,
Well the reason I was asking about the Peters fertilizer was because I live in Mexico but I haven't been able to find a hydroponics specialized fertilizer and since I saw that video well I was excited because Peters is the one that I can get that disolves in water so I will give it a try to grow some tomatoes and some herbs maybe and I'll tell you how it works.
Thank you so much guys.
