Hi all
In the last batch of liquid ferts I did, I am noticing that the mix is getting more and more cloudy. This is the recipe I used:
16g KNO3
1,5g KH2PO4
15g K2SO4
10 MgSO4
250 ml H2O
(it is the so-called PPS-Pro mix but recalculated for a 250 ml batch)
When I did it, I noticed that it was quite hard to dissolve and I had to shake it really hard (notice that it's +40g of salts in just 250 ml) but the liquid remained clear for weeks. Now that I am finishing the batch (and there has been probably some water evaporation, not really sure about that), the mix is getting cloudy (although I cannot see salts on the bottom, there is no precipitation for the moment).
Is this amount of salts (or any of the salts) close to the precipitation point? The original recipe was for 1 liter but I did nothing but reduce the amounts to 1/4
