Can anyone recommend a product that I can use to mix the water in a 275 gallon water tote while I am feeding the plants? I hand mix it occasionally to make sure what I put in the tote is well mixed in. I do have power near the water tote. Some type of mixer?

A big air pump or a drill with a grout paddle. I have used both and the thoroughly mix the tank in seconds.

A small electric pump with the inlet at the bottom of the tank and outlet at the top of the tank would recirculate and agitate the solution nicely.

I bought a cheap irrigation pump to mix my ferts. I couldn't be happier with it's mixing. After mixing just switch up the valves and pump it to the patch.

Just use a large aerator pump, seems cheap and easy.

I mix mine in a smaller container first then add to tank. Will mix quickly with just a little stirring.
