Don’t try to go organic after using this on a plant. Once a plant gets used to taking in EDTA or other chealation it doesn’t need to make exudates for its nutrient uptake. It can revert but it takes awhile. If you start with this finish with this. Foliar with organics is OK.

Oh yea not switching at least till I use everything up I was talking about using the labs on it with all this stuff should be ok right

This is what i mean by LAB. You can use this as a foliar and the plant would love it. In the soil it will help but your roots aren’t used to trading exudates for enzymes, amino’s and such. It would be more beneficial using it from the start without Chelators.

I understand lol thank you an I see I see due to the edta my plant lacks the ability to to do what it would be able to do if it had not been introduced in the first place it wouldn’t be able to breakdown an process the nutrients in the organics so stick with what it’s used to right now

Have you considered using a rockwool slab, cut it in half it would be about the size of your drip tray. Will hold a lot more liquid than just the blocks on their own.
I have spotted something I need to point out as I believe its a fire hazard waiting to happen.
I spotted a fan heater or fan blower sat on top of a cardboard drinks holder. If you use that type of electrical heater element blower they get hot, I have even seen one set fire to dust on the elements and burn itself to a melted mess on the floor years ago.
An elctrical heater like that really wants to be stood on a fire block, a brick, a breeze block or chunky peice of wood, not anything that is easily combustable or can crush and the fan tip over facing the carpet floor.
I only point it out as a safety tip for you @Growinnblowin I enclose the pic I spotted it in.

Mapito, tiny rockwool cubes, fill a big pot with them, place tray under pot for run off.

Or you could make something yourself that resembeles a trough.

Many stores sell smaller bags of mapito or 1cm cubes, I would use those in a pot with holes for drainage and stand on a tray.
I play with hydroponics too.
These are not bad for a single plant I used to have some of these but someone was so impressed with them they bought them from me.
You can easily mock this up using 2 plastic containers and feed pipe and a pump if your handy with a drill etc 
A couple of $1 plastic storage containers sat inside each other (1 deep & 1 shallow), drill holes in the floor base of the top one, and drill or cut a hole for the feed pipe tube, small pump and a timer or manual water/feed. Cheap as chips DIY home project. @Growinnblowin
Edit if you wanna do a diy version I have 1 I can dig out and take pics of for you somewhere

I dont know about that as a fact but I know you can get a good root mass and growth with them.
I had 1 plant under a 400hps in a closet in 1 of those and she gave just over 14oz of premium white widow, admitedly it was a mum I had grown and trained and use for cloning for 6 months, but when flowered off she produced 1gram per watt under a 400 hps in a closet.
