Does anyone know of a list or way to determine what products can be mixed together in sprayer? With all of the products, it is nearly impossible to spray them all individually. I usually use Neptune fish and seaweed, TKO, CalCarb, Miracle Grow, Azos, BiotaMax, and Liquid Potassium the most.

Also, what is the best way to add calcium once plants are growing. My soil test was late coming back, and plants were in. Calcium was about 2400lbs/acre, which was in the "yellow" range.

Only my second year growing so any advice greatly appreciated.

I've been wondering the same thing. Nothing would help me more than a list of what can and can't be mixed, especially with all of the rain we've been having, I don't want to have to spray every single day. It's too wet as it is. I feel like I would be promoting disease more than preventing it.

I have mixed seaweed, TKO, and Potassium together for the last 2 years with no problems. I am assuming fish would be fine mixed in there as well. I've always sprayed the CalCarb (I use Lithovit, but similar product) seperate, just with a sticker added. I'm sure Miricle Grow could be mixed with anything no problem and you could mix Azos and BiotaMax as well.

TKO, 0-0-25, Neptune's and calcarb, all no problem.
As for Miracle grow, I dont use it nor do I recommend it, I dont use Biotamax, so the easiest way to find out is to mix a little in a container and see what happens.

Linden, Mi.,

mix your sprays - then mix a little of each together, if they stay liquid (do not set up) then you can mix them and spray. I do it all the time, saves time !
