Stock solution is the working strength developer without additional dilution. For a product such as D-76 which is made from powder, you typically mix the powder into a “stock” solution, which can then be used as is, or can be diluted further (eg. 1+1). Liquid concentrate developers, such as Rodinal, are always diluted before use. These developers do not have a stock solution.
