Attention
Please consider, these are general recommendations which require adjustments in case of specific situations. All dosages are based on unfertilized media; reduce them if other fertilizers are used.
The rate of nutrient releases can vary according to the temperature of the substrate: 2M is determined at 21°C, 15-16°C results in 2-3M and 26-27°C in 1-2M.
