What will happen if i dont use cal/mag with my ro water and just watering days? Will it cause a low yeilds?
 
I didnt get much of any deficiency cause i think i was adding enough on feeding days but i didnt add on just water days figured to cut down on salts but i did notice i got a low yeild an was wonder if that was why.
 
Im sry i misread your question. My apologies had jus woken up. If your not having a deficiency many other things could account for a lower yield.
 
Well thats what im trying to figure out if it was from me not putting cal/mag in my ro water on just water days..
 
Not adding the cal/mag in RO will def cause it. The ro water has nothing in it. Its a blank canvas for you to paint a picture for your ladies of everything they need. When using say tap water their are minerals an etc which is why you dont always have to use cal/mag when using tap. Again my apologies hadnt had my morning wake up yet.
 
Thx thats what i thought cause then the left over nutes in the soil wouldnt be used then if im correct.. get ur wake in bake in..
 
Cal mag is used to keep the plant from getting deficiencies, if your plant didn't have a calcium or magnesium deficiency then your low yeild wasn't caused by not using cal mag
 
I dont what it is but im about done using advanced nutes, too much guess working and money with their line, im about to switch to rx green solutions..
 
Lol, I use AN, folks here hate them though, it is expensive and is mostely water, but honestly as long as the bottle you choose has the right balances and micros your plants will be fine with any brand
 
Yea the cost of them aint worth it, so far rx green solutions is looking better then advanced nutrients in a side by side with me... an its cheaper an less bottles compared to the 16 bottles bullshit..

I only use the a+b and a gh product called armour si, no tons of bottles for me
 
Ive used the whole line, the mass root bs of voodoo, tarantula, piranha doesnt work for me ocra was better with same results.. yes armor si is good just cant use too much of it, better then rhino skin for sure.. an the sensi cal has more nitrogen so i like using calimagic..
 
Lol, I keep mine as simple as possible, tap water here runs ph 7, so I use 1/2 tsp of si per gallon, then mix in the ph perfect coco a+b, brings itself down to a nice 5.5 ish and that's that, a little Epsom salt when needed maybe some big bud if I remember, but usually don't lol, I'm a lazy grower
 
See i thought about just using the a+b alone an see how that would work for me, since i got gallons of it.. how are your yeilds? An your in coco?
