nutrient freezing?

hey guys was wondering something .. I know nutrients and grow/bud enhancers have a self life. but I like buying stuff in bulk to save money so was wondering can I freeze the stuff so I keep it longer ? say for example like gravite you use only like 2.5 ml to 5 gallon of water .. so the stuff can go a long way now I know they don't make it anymore and I can get my hands on a gallon of the stuff so if I do buy it I don't want to see most of it go bad before I use it all.. So if I was to freeze the stuff up in quarts and use it as I need it could I keep that stuff good for for a couple years?

Do you mea Gravity? I don't know what gravite is. But I would suspect that after freezing you may have nutrients fall out of solution.
You'd be better off getting dry nutrients.

sorry, yes gravity . it only comes as liquid so I cant get it as powder. So that's why I was wondering if it can be frozen to keep it for a longer amount of time..

Don't waste your money on Gravity man. It's a huge ripoff.

I've used it. And not used it, then tried it again. I don't think it does a whole lot in all honesty. I stopped wasting my money on it years ago. But you can continue to use it if you like.

It can help with hardening yes if you're environment isn't up to par. However if you have your environment in check it will most likely hold back resin production. You may also want to know there are chemicals in it, and many others like it linked to cancer.

alot of nutrients contain micro bacteria's and enzymes that would probably be killed if you freeze them thats why it states keep out of sun and in a cool dry place
