Plant Magic Soil Grow

Using Soil Grow in your hydroponic setup is straightforward, but getting the best results requires understanding a few key principles. Whether you’re a novice or an experienced gardener, this guide will walk you through the process.

Mixing the Nutrient Solution

First, you’ll need to prepare your nutrient solution by diluting Soil Grow in water. The recommended dilution rate is 2-3ml of fertiliser per litre of water. To ensure the best results, use room-temperature water. After adding the fertiliser to the water, mix thoroughly until it’s fully dissolved. This solution provides the balanced nutrients your plants need right from the start.

Watering Your Plants

When watering your plants with the nutrient solution, it’s important to avoid over-saturation. Your soil should ideally contain 25% water. This balance allows roots to access oxygen while absorbing nutrients effectively. Over-watering can drown the roots, leading to poor growth or even plant death. If your soil appears too wet, drain off any excess water to maintain the right moisture level.

Adjusting for Hard and Soft Water

Plant Magic Soil Grow works with both hard and soft water, but it’s helpful to understand your specific water type. If you’re using hard water, which contains more minerals, ensure you monitor your plants for any signs of nutrient buildup. With soft water, make sure you maintain regular feeding schedules to compensate for the lack of natural calcium and magnesium.

Monitoring Plant Health

As your plants grow, observe their health closely. The magnesium and calcium in Soil Grow helps prevent nutrient lock-out, but it’s still important to watch for any signs of deficiency, such as yellowing leaves or stunted growth. Adjust your feeding schedule or dilution rate if necessary to keep your plants thriving.

Frequency of Application

You should use Soil Grow throughout your plants’ entire growth cycle, from seedlings to harvest. Regularly feeding your plants with this nutrient solution ensures consistent growth and helps maximise yield. However, be sure to follow the recommended dilution rates and avoid overfeeding, as this can lead to nutrient imbalances.

Can I use Plant Magic Soil Grow with hard water?

Absolutely! Plant Magic Soil Grow works effectively with both hard and soft water, especially in the UK. If you’re using hard water, the fertiliser’s balanced formula ensures that your plants still absorb the essential nutrients without causing nutrient lock-out. Just be sure to monitor your plants for any signs of excess minerals and adjust your dilution rate if necessary.

How often should I feed my plants with Plant Magic Soil Grow?

You should feed your plants with Soil Grow throughout their entire growth cycle, from seedlings to harvest. Typically, applying the nutrient solution once a week is sufficient, but this depends on your specific plant needs and environmental conditions. Always follow the recommended dilution rate of 2-3ml per litre of water to avoid overfeeding.

What is the best way to mix Plant Magic Soil Grow?

The best way to mix Soil Grow is to add 2-3ml of the fertiliser per litre of room-temperature water. Stir the solution thoroughly until the fertiliser is fully dissolved. This process ensures that the nutrients are evenly distributed and readily available for your plants to absorb.

How can I prevent over-watering when using Plant Magic Soil Grow?

To prevent over-watering, ensure that your soil contains no more than 25% water. This balance allows your plants to get the nutrients they need while still having access to oxygen. If the soil looks too saturated, drain any excess water immediately to maintain the optimal growing environment.
