Ok. Here is my plan for moving forward. I am going to flush my coco wish sledge Hammer and I am going to go with 2ml of big bloom 2ml of grow big and 2ml of cal mag. what do you think? This makes 190ppm of cal mag plus I am adding micros with big bloom. Do you think this is to much?

This is the last post I try and help you lennut.
You still don't understand cation exchange capacity at all.
I only ever used a ppm meter in the trade.
I don't use one myself.
These plant are 5 weeks old , from seed.
To put it into perspective I'm only feeding 1mL per litre of a+b !!!!!!!
As long as they're green and growing faster everyday, you don't need to ad a single thing!!
You gotta get more is better out of your head.
Just take easy man and learn from your current grow.
That's all I can say.

Ditto Pal.
Yea I am really confused! Last thing stink bug said was 150 of cal mag and less grow. You said no cal mag to flush and cut nuts. Now stink bug agrees with you saying cut everything but 1 ml of grow. Y’all make no since but thanks anyway

Its part of growing mate.
We might grow a plant differently. But we can grow a healthy plant.
Everyone has they're own way.
You have to find yours. Thats the best advice you're gonna get.
Good bye.
Good luck.

Tim and I agreed this is exhausting.
And I agree with him that we each have our particular way of growing. And all of us have unique environmental differences. Your original question has turned into wanting confirmation on every move you make.
Keep reading. Keep growing. And learn along the way.
Remember, perfection is just a word. It has no place in the real world.

I understand to some existent. Somethings said are incorrect according to what I have read and I want to understand what you mean. Like WTF is hard RO water? Or one said add cal mag and one says not to and what I'v read says to add it. Either way I get this is a forum and there isn't one fix all answer. I appreciate you guys time and we will see how it turns out. Happy growing

Hardness of RO water is a head scratcher for many of us! You are not alone there.
Don't stop asking questions. Ask them. Take the responses and do a bit of research. Apply what you feel is right. You will make mistakes, we all did and still do. It's really a very easy plant to grow. Don't get caught up in the hype. Just keep it real and you will be growing dank before you know it. Don't stress over the journey, embrace it!

You can have hard ro water if your filters need a change. Thats why i asked. You need to check those kinda things. You'll figure it out in time.
You're a lost cause, and we can't help you.
Just think the word capacity. Thats all im saying.
Good luck in your grow.

At 25 ppm RO or tap, would never be considered hard. The hardness of water is not nearly as important as its total alkalinity. Here's another good read to start with.

The ppms would also be unreasonably high if the filters and or RO membrane need changing.
If it aint 0ppm it aint RO.
IMHO ro should have nothing in it at all.
Its completely empty.

He stated his measures zero. I just used 25 as a random number to see who was paying attention. Lol
