Just curious how home breeders go about this. When you start to use a bottle do you use a little and throw it back up in your culture station? Just looking for a nice routine of usage and replenishment, if that makes sense. Thanks
 
i got tired of a million and one bottles bubbling. i use the instant stuff from reeds. it takes up less space and now you can get combo strains. a little more costly but a lot less time consuming
 
Hmmmm, yeah thats where Im at too. I think im gonna have to give that a try. Any tips on its use?
 
I keep 2 five gallon buckets going

I draw 6 cc into a syringe and place into bucket, draw syringe to 30 cc and then add 15 cc of the diluted phyto to each bucket. Real simple.

When I get it from reeds I also split it into 80 cc bottles so that I only have a small amount if I forget it outside of the fridge or something.
