MasterBlend is a great nutrient for peppers. However, one of the drawbacks for me is that it is a pain to measure the individual components when mixing small amounts of nutrients - this process is time consuming and error prone.
Peter Stanley has a video where he pre-mixes the ingredients, but he creates a concentrate of each ingredient, rather than mixing them all together. At the end of the day, with this approach you still need to measure the 3 ingredients separately, so it doesn't save much IMO.
So I was thinking if it would be possible to make a concentrated solution with all 3 ingredients, and use this to make small batches of nutrients (say 1 or 2 gallons at a time). This would save a lot of time since we would only measure once. Has anybody done this (I can't possibly be the first one to think of this)? I wonder what the maximum concentration would be before you start getting sediment which would throw the solution out of whack. That is my main concern.
