I’ve read if you water with plain water itll leech out the the calcium and magnesium that is stored in the cations making potassium and sodium more available be cause coco is rich in potassium and sodium which will cause lock outs and deficiency that is why it is recommended to feed coco with...
I’m using Lucas formula with the adding cal mag I read somewhere the brown spots from potassium being locked out due to the excess nitrogen probably from the micro and calcium nitrate in the cal mag
I’m running coco with hydraton can’t water plain water it’ll mess with the cation exchange so my watering is a light feed around 550 ppm then I’m feeding at around 700 ppm it was 950 before I adjusted
Your gonna wanna get your water up to about 150 with cal mag to start off with and add 1/8 strength of your recommended nutrients for your plants stage of life since ro water get everything filtered out .
I’m just a noob tho so might work might not
I thought so too since I’ve been reading some threads on coco seems everyone runs a pretty low ppm . I will upping my cal mag and lowering my base nutes to see if they bounce back will post pics in a couple of days
That’s what I thought at first but I’m kinda scared to up the cal mag because that’ll bring my ppm up to 1000-1100 from everything I’ve read that seems pretty high for coco
Waddup guys and gals,
So this my first run in coco and I’ve been getting these burnt leaf edges that look like Nute burn but also like potassium def I’m on day 16 of flower and was just wondering what advice you guys might have
Setup:600w HPS
8x8 tent
Coco with hydraton
5x 3galon smart pots
R/o...
4gal smart pots about 3 gallons of coco and there about 15 day old clones and I water every 3days because pot looked a little big . Should I be feeding every day now?
