Anybody use one of these magnetic stirrer? Doesn’t have to be this brand, this is a cheapo unit so we’ll see how long it’ll last.

I will be using with a 1500ml glass mason jar, pic shows small jar for “testing”. The stirrer will be connected to an Apex outlet, so it will NOT be running 24/7. Haven’t decided yet, but maybe 5-10mins before the doser is activated every hour. So total maybe 10-15mins every hour at most.

I will be using a BRS 1.1ml doser, because I have one laying around, and I only dose about 45-60ml of Phyto daily as of now so high volume isn’t a concern.

Here goes nothin’, haha...

Very cool. Are you keeping the Phyto refrigerated or?
The normal stuff I grow usually goes into the fridge for storage because I usually have to much

But, while we grow it, it is not in a refrigerator.

I guess I could always add another air line from the manifold and just not light it.

So currently I will not be refrigerating it. Worst case when I top off, maybe once a week just because, it’ll be getting fresh stuff.
