I’ve been growing a few plants in water so far, and I think it may be time to fertilize! What hydroponic fertilizer do you use/recommend?

I use this for my "Lucky Bamboo" I add it to every water change which I do every week to avoid algae. Just add 5ml to 1L of water (I don't use the whole litre though for this one plant) It seems to work well and my plant is happy.

This is "Lucky" that had no leaves when I bought them and have always used the above plant feed for it.
