I am going to start off with leafy greens in the beginning such as lettuce and spinach and maybe graduate to tomatoes and some berries later on if it works well. So my question is: since this is a lettuce intended fertilizer, would it work with tomatoes and strawberries as well or should i be looking at a bloom fertilizer? Also, do i really have to replace the water every week or can i just top it off as needed?
Hello e_deher

Im no expert by far but just out of curiosity the npk of your nutrients seems a little like miracle grow soil ?.....could u explain a little more about your nutrients please ..... I'll help as much as i can

It seems a little to strong to start off at 24-15-36 that's all.
