Hey all. Please forgive me if I have missed the answer somewhere in my sand-sifting... I am wondering if anybody has a simplified way of using AN PH perfect nutes as far as teaspoons per gallon goes like the GH series has. Getting confused by liter's and ml's. Also, I am concerned about the burn factor of these nutes. I use GH series at 1/4 to 1/3 strength, wondering if I would have to do this with AN as well, and if so wouldn't this lower the PH'ing power? Thanks so much guys!
Grow Mediums Advanced Nutrients PH perfect simplified anybody?

Just google a conversion chart for liters and ml to gal and teaaspoons etc.
Thanks Namvet!
I just got done mixing up a batch of seed strength. One gallon is 3.78 liters... For this experiment I rounded down to 3.5 liters.
According to the directions for seeds it's 1ml per liter so obviously I just mixed 3.5ml of each of the three in the series (luckily I found a syringe that is perfect for this after writing my original post, irony is duly noted).
Still somewhat concerned about the plants burning at higher strength but maybe if it's happy I will just use it at mid strength.
As an interesting side note: the ph of my water is 7.4 out of the tap. It did indeed lower it to 5.5, will wait an hour and see what the result is then.
God I hope this works! I am SO tired of PH swings and hovering over my nute rez on the hour to test again...
Thanks again for your reply!! I appreciate it!!

Just checked again, a little impatient I know.
It's now at 6.0 but from what I have read it kicks in and bumps it back down again... Cautiously optimistic.
Have you had any problems with nute burn from this product? I know I sound like a broken record here but I witnessed the power of the GH series the one time I used it at full strength, back in my first hydro grow. Impressive and devastating at the same time :no:

Hmm.... My PH is reading 6.5 now. I will have to wait to check it again. Like so many others out there in the work force, Labor Day means laboring for me haha! Time to get ready for work. Oh well, make money pay bills etc. Been reading some seed ordering threads, don't think I will be spending money on genetics any time soon though since they are getting snagged:Holy Moly:
I do wonder why the PH perfect isn't kicking in yet though! Hope it changes when I get home tonight!!
