Nutrient Mix Calculator
BetaCalculate the exact nutrient amounts for your 3-part system based on growth phase, substrate, and water volume.
BetaThese tools are built from our own experience and deep research. We're actively testing and improving them in real conditions. Got feedback or ideas to make them even better? We'd love to hear from you!
Always add nutrients in this order: Micro first, then Grow, then Bloom. Mix each part thoroughly before adding the next to prevent nutrient lockout.

How to Calculate Nutrient Mixes for Cannabis
Getting the nutrient mix right is one of the most important aspects of cannabis cultivation. Too much can burn your plants, too little stunts growth. Our nutrient mix calculator takes the guesswork out by providing exact ml amounts for each growth phase.
A standard 3-part nutrient system (Grow, Micro, Bloom) covers all essential macro and micronutrients. The ratio between these three parts shifts as your plant moves through its lifecycle – more Grow during vegetative, more Bloom during flowering.
Your water's base EC (electrical conductivity) matters. Tap water in Germany typically has an EC of 0.2–0.5 mS/cm. This base EC must be subtracted from your target to avoid overfeeding. If your tap water EC is very high, consider using reverse osmosis (RO) water.
Different substrates require different nutrient concentrations. Soil has natural buffering capacity and nutrient reserves, so target EC is lower. Coco and hydro systems have no buffer, requiring more precise nutrient management but allowing for higher concentrations.
