Edevanad’s Question
Hi,
Can you use the osmocote plus or your other smart release product for hydroponic system? I would like to do a hydroponic without the use of adding nutrients all the time
Or can you recommend something so i can achieve a slow and controlled release fertilizer for my hydroponics?
Thanks

So sorry but Osmocote is designed to use in the soil where it releases nutrients slowly. I cannot recommend it for your hydroponic/water garden. Perhaps you should contact someone with experience in growing hydroponically as this is a more specialized topic and I do not have any personal experience in this field. Best of luck with all you will learn, Marianne Binetti
