I put it in mason jars. The rest I have closed tightly the bag and put into a pail with a gamma lid

Have a question don't have time to read whole thread
Just got some mega crop for this grow
It appears there is some white stuff at the bottom of the jug after I mix it and even let it sit for a day
Anyone have this problem as well?
It just won't dissolve

Hola mi amigo!
I use a big ass tupperware that can fit the whole 22lb bag. (I think it's actually rubbermaid, but whatever. What kind of coke do you want? Need a skill saw?)
I also don't bother grinding mine up. Never been an issue. I mix up in a 5gal bucket (even for the 50gal, that I then mix into the barrel) with a drill paddle. Smokes it, no problem.
Soda pop for me...lol
I never ground it before but may try this time...I may not...not sure yet
I'm not much of a measurererer with weight
, I like my measuring spoooooons, but we shall see
What are you using for water? Do you know the EC? What concentration are you mixing at? From GLN: "The type of insoluble from Mega Crop when mixing at high concentration, is a white powder type sulfur/calcium substance, however as mentioned previously, after 12-24 hours in normal water supply, this will dissolve nearly fully completely"
Never thought about grinding it up. It's already damn near a powder, except for the pebbles. I use a 1.5x1.5x18 inch piece of wood to stir it up in warm water in a half filled 5 gallon bucket (then fill the bucket to 4 gallons afterward and stir again). And I use the butt of the wood to beat those pebbles into submission. If I get a little powdery stuff in the bottom of the bucket, I don't care. I just stir it again before use.

Using tap water which is Brita filtered
I grow in soil and also mix 4 grams to a gallon
Not sure what you mean by EC
Will try to let it sit after adding to water for 24 hours then apply to pots
Thanks

anything hand watered has no need to worry about precipitate. it's only an issue in rdwc applications.
just stir the mix between feedings and go about your life happy.
A Brita filter removes some, but not all minerals from the water. If you have water with a heavy mineral content, much of it will pass through the Brita. This is why I asked for the EC.
At 4gm / US gal, you should have no white particles in the water, if you have a low enough EC. However, you may have brown particles which are organic matter that won't dissolve. This is normal.
EC is the conductivity of water. TDS/PPM are other measurements that do the same. EC is universal, while TDS/PPM is regional. There are at least four 'standards' used to measure PPM, which vary from 500 to 700 PPM per 1 EC. That's why I ask for EC rather than PPM.

hiya @Pepperhead - dunno know if anyone threw this at you as well

I've been lucky I guess not having to supplement calmag with my MC/dwc garden. OG Cheese, Biscotti and so far Bday Cake all without anything but MC. I don't use RO just straight tap water. Edit: Biscotti was grown in soil the tap is likely key FBB. MC looks primarily aimed at commercial. for...

it's sorely behind, but may answer some current and future questions about the nute.

ground or not it is best to store MC in a sealed container. airtight or semi - airtight is best, MC attracts moisture, and can clump up under very humid conditions. it just attracts more water once it does...
once wet it won't dry. it can be mixed out and used if you like. you'll need to be on a ppm / ec basis to be accurate however.
the 9.9 kg bags of MC pour nicely in to the 2.5 gallon plastic bucket you can find at popular hardware stores. they come with lids for longer term storage. for daily use i divvied some up in cleaned up coconut oil jars.
old peanut butter containers and coffee containers are other popular choices.

Put my mother plant in the veg tent. Still feeding @ 4g. She was huge so I pulled 20 clones and performed some hardcore supercropping and ziptie bondage.
Here are the clones. Being fed 2g MC & 5ml of GH Bioroot per gal. Currently residing in my flower room with the male plant under 24hr lights. Once the clones root I'll flip everything to 12/12.
Last we have our suspected male. Feeding @ 4g per gal as well. I'll leave him in with the clones for now. Once he's ripe I'll collect the pollen for my MJDNA bank. Thinking about a BdayCake x OG Cheese cross.
OG Cheesecake?

I got my stored in a little plastic supplement container with one of those dry pack things you get in food. It seems to seal pretty tightly too, protein containers would be good if you want to grind up the whole bag or something

You use protein containers? No whey!
