whats the shelf life of a nutrient solution?

[Killuminati420]

i have to water everyone in my growroom every other day to hand water around 50 2gal pots and i go through and mix a lot of water, i mixed about 25gals a couple days ago and only used about 3/5s of it. i have to water again today but i dont want to dump out all that water and nutrients if its still good. could i still use my mix from a couple days ago?
thanks. eace:

As long as you didn't have light on it I would still use it. Ideally you want the solution mixing constantly. You can get a cheap air pump and a couple air stones to keep the mix moving if you want to mix large batches to use over time. I would mix the solution you have now up a bunch (stir a lot) and then (if you have one) use your ph-ppm meter to check out the solution and see what thte readings are. If everything checks out then I would use it.

then you should be fine, use it up! But then again I am not sober, I would wait for another person much smarter than me to tell you it's ok.
