CHEMICALS AND MIXTURES

Chemical formulation and mixing

For making nutrient aqua solution required chemical amount and the technique is described bellow:

Amount of chemical element (for 1000 liter water)

Chemical nutrient	Amount
Potassium  hydrogen phosphate(KH­2PO4)	270 g
Potassium nitrate(KNO3)	580 g
Calcium nitrate (Ca(NO3)2.4H2O)	1000 g
Magnesium sulpate (MgSO4.7H2O)	510 g
EDTA Iron	80 g
Manganese sulphate (MgSO4.4H2O)	6.10 g
Boric acid (H3BO3)	1.80 g
Cupper sulphate (CuSO4.5H2O)	0.40 g
Ammonium molibdate  (NH4)6 O24.4H2O	0.38 g
Zinc sullphate (ZnSO4.7H2O)	0.44 g

Mixing procedure

At the time of preparing nutrient solution precaution should be maintained. At first we have to prepare the stock solution. For making this stock solution calcium nitrate and EDTA iron is measured and diluted in 10 liter water ,this prepared stock solution in known as solution A . Other chemicals are mixed in 10 liter water and prepare solution B.

For making 1000 liter solution first 1000liter water tank is filed with water. Then from stock solution A 10 liter solution was taken in the tank and mixed with the help of any non metallic rod .next from stock solution B ,10 liter  solution was taken in the tank and mixed carefully just like before.
