When you collect the liquid fertilizer do you just pour it back into the container as if watering it?

Paul, I bought this for my husband, so I asked him. This is what he said, "You can. But I just water mine enough to water the plants. I'm not trying to water it enough to get anything to run through and make fertilizer."Hope that helps. BTW...he loves his!

We use the run-off to water the plants in the tower and other plants that are growing outside of the tower.

Yes, I have done that. I have also used some to water other plants in my yard, and they seem to love it.

Mixing it with water from the hose dilutes it, so if you have another container, pour half in that and save for later. It will leave more space in the original container for the water from the hose.

It sometimes does depending on moisture in the air. I simply cut the top of the container off carefully and dump it in a blender or you can crush it up yourself and then put it in another storage air tight container. It is good stuff and worth the effort.

The directions tell you how much to put in. But I just fill it up slowly until it starts to come out other end....messy, but works great. It's not hard to fill the containers, just make sure you are putting it in the right spot. Again, directions make it very clear where to fill up container....there should be a hole opening under the label on the edge.

Hi Patrick, I put a pump and return lines on my 4 bucket system. This way the water gets flushed back into the main bucket and keeps plants very happy. I used the system without the pump and had good results as long as you changed the solution every week. Now with the pump I can go 10-12 days before changing it. THe plants grow really good either way.MUDFLAT

The glass part comes out and you fill it under the sink, then flip it back over. With any of these, make sure the plant is well watered first. It's pretty, but small. the ceramic ones that accommodate a large wine bottle are my favorite.

You can, but you must keep it moist, spray it with distilled water, reverse osmosis water, or collected rain water, make sure you collect the water from a clean source and not under a synthetic source. I hope this satisfies your answer. Also to add keep the container a quarter to have full at all times, and don't keep the plant in full sun, if you do the plant will burn and dry along with the soil.

Yes, but - You want to measure the "runoff" or drainage from the pot. Water your plants lightly then let them sit untill all soil is moist, then slowly add water until you get your runoff, rather than pouring it on and it drains too quickly and your measurement will be off.

correct. the way one rotates the compost is by lifting the very light container off the pile, replacing the container next to the pile and reloading the compost into the container. its a large container and for me does not need a lot of attention. I do not rotate more than once a season.

Yes you can mix the nutrients in the same water and then water your plants. Not sure if that's what you were asking for.

It is on the top you refill ,you would just pull straight up on the nozzle/cap and then pour your liquid into the opening/ plastic container.

you mix it with water according to the instructions, then spray it onto your plants using a spray bottle

I mixed it with my other fertilizer and, as far as I could tell, it dissolved along with the rest of the fertilizer when watered.

I have heard that some people warm it up by putting the container in hot water. I got mine in the summer so it was liquid. I just transfered it to another container.

Yes, you mix 2 ounces with a gallon of water. I use a garden sprayer and spray the plants once a week until harvest. We had great success with this product last year and things are looking good for this year as well.

Yes. Follow directions carefully to make sure water if flowing before you leave. Water container must be lower then the plant and you need to make sure water is being drawn up. I also attached a small stone to the bottom of tubing to make it sink to the bottom of the empty clear plastic gallon size milk jug.

it's not so much about how long you wait, it's about making sure that the individual components are fully dissolved ie: add fertilizer first and be sure that it's fully dissolved then you can add cal nitrate and stir until fully dissolved and then Epsom salts and stir until fully dissolved. If this method is not used apparently you have a nutrient lockout situation and the plants as a result will suffer, Hope this helps, Cheers!
