Default Re: Hydopronic Bananas

Suppose you are going to grow green leaf veggies hydroponically. For $10 you can get a 2-lb bottle of General Hydroponics 5-0-1, or you can get a 5-lb bag of water-soluble concentrate designed for hydroponic green veggies, made from natural minerals and kelp. Not only do you get more quantity, but the water-soluble is more concentrated and hence you use less of it each application. In total, the water-soluble lasts 10 times as long, or conversely the General Hydroponics costs 10 times as much.
