Nutrient Mix Help Please

Hi All

I'm new to growing, with only 1 grow under my belt which was 2x ACDC plants and using a soil mix, but now I want to try out DWC ... so I've built a 20liter bucket system.

My seedling has been living off PH'd water and i'm now on the stage where i need to start thinking about my nutrient mix.

The local store has a product for hydroponics feeding but i am really confused about the mix, so I'm hoping someone here can help me with some advice.

Ive attached some photos of the products. A&B Mix and a bloom.

The label suggest a ratio for a tomato or lettuce type plant. also the mix says 'per 1 liter'... does that mean i need to mix enough for my 20litre bucket or am i only making a mix in 1litre and adding that to my 20liters? EEEEKKK!!!

thanks!

that is the measurement per liter so 20x that for a 20 liter bucket. But its better to start with a lot less, maybe like 1/4 for very small plants.

thanks and for the ratio is it more like a tomato or lettuce!!?

tomato

thanks

I can't decide if weed is more like tomatoes or lettuce??? I think I'd still use the lettuce recommendations until I saw some yellow leaves since most nute labels recommendations are too strong.

I'd still use the tomato recipe at 1/4 strength. Unless the lettuce is code for veg, but without knowing I would use the tomato.
