    Hey guys, I switched from rockwool to coco today and bought some pre-buffered 70% coco 30% perlite mix. It says it is pre-buffered on the package. Do I have to add calmag or is that already done. Does this mean they just flushed the medium or does it mean that they already added calmag. Thanks...
