Seramis produce a nutrient suitable for use with houseplants, for all other plants we recommend General Hydroponics Floraseries range. General guidelines for growing in hydroponics are:-

Establish plant in propagation substrate of your choice, then place the plant in a suitable amount of Seramis growing medium - as a rough guideline we tend to recommend around 10-15 litres per plant, the longer the life of the plant the more medium you should use. Seramis performs best in constantly fed drip re-circulating systems, in this type of system its impossible to overwater so the pump can and should be run constantly. In the early stages, however, you may wish to hold back on watering slightly for plants that have been established in Rockwool or a similar type of growing substrate, until the plant has put down a good root system into the Seramis itself.

At first glance Seramis looks expensive, but its simply a case of getting what you pay for. Its already a huge seller in Germany and Holland - its now started to get very good traction in the UK market with several leading retailers stocking it.
