Hey guys I have been doing a couple plants as an experiment with osmocote+ (dont judge lol) and it has actually been going exceptionally at least through veg.
Really the only issue has been the increased cal/mag into from them being in coco. I am trying to have the best of both worlds, the osmocote to save time mixing nutes up, and the hydro-esque growth characteristics of coco.
I was curious if anybody has tried mixing there calmag supplements into their media at the beginning?
I know people in soil use dolomite lime for this, but I also know it raises PH in the media. Which I assume would cause an issue in coco??
Anybody have any thought or ideas?
I was contemplating like a mix of peat/coco/dolomite to balance the ph out with the OC+ mixed in?
