How do I store my liquid ferts?

[ulster exile]

Are they ok in the cupboard under my tank or should I be fridging them? Only asking as I noticed that my trace mix appears to have some mould or something on it!

well my gin never lasts long enough to go in the fridge...

... no wait.. you said ferts

Gin? Bluech! Whisky's what you want mate, 'specially the good stuff from the right side of the Irish sea

Only the trace mix lasts any length of time - I make up 250ml batches and dose 10ml 3 times a week, so it can last 8 weeks really.

I do like whiskey.. but I have extremely expensive tastes. I find the cheaper stuff tastes like Jeyes Fluid!

seriously though.. Ive never had a problem with under the tank storage. but if your struggling then lowering the temperature is always going to slow things down.

Cheers Matt, confirmed what I thought!

And as for the whisky - you get what you pay for!

Heya Chrisi,
Yes try fridging, or try freezing some. Try using water that you pre-boiled (and left to cool). Try using a sterilised bottle.

Or try all of the above!
