How long can I keep a batch of nutrient?

I'm just getting started with a simple run to waste system using GH Flora series nutrients. I'd like to know how long I can store a batch of nutrient. Do I need to aerate it?

Many thanks

Chris

How long for nutrient storage
by: memwl

Do not store, Make new batch, Just go by the rule of nutrient change schedule, usually 1-2 weeks depending on plant size and consumption, as you know water evaporates nutrients crystalize etc.
Don't chance losing your plants.
I find in hydroponics, safe is way better than sorry all plantsGON E.
