Its either soil or coco..
They are 2 diff medians and always cause this exact problem with every newbie that buys this

I tested my Mars Hydro 300 it was pulling about 120 watts at the wall.

My galaxy 300 was 140 I think

Yes u will for sure need calmag with coco

Mostly they come in bricks but u can find bulk at hydro shops.

I'd get bricks n cut to your size needs. Wrap up n seal the rest in a freezer bag.

I do not believe you need to add Cal-Mag if you are using nutes designed for coco. Like Canna Coco and Advanced Nutrients “Sensi Coco” line. They are formulated to work with the specific properties of coco. If you are using a more generalized base nute, then yes, add Cal-Mag.

Yes I'm using cana a+b and canna boost

Then you should be fine, don’t add any. Especially since you not in raw coco, but a blended mix. I agree with EventHorizan, that stuff is so confusing for newbies. If you want to experience coco, rehydrate a brick and grow. The blended crap is a sales gimmick and will mess up your feeding strength. If you see deficiencies don’t add Cal-mag, just up the feed EC.

I used B+Q verve compost that they have added coir to in my last grow and had Calcium deficiency issues throughout :-( Calcium supplement is needed as coir holds on to it.. I think the coir benefits the soil greatly if you know a way to avoid the calcium issue. .

Gonna sub this coco thread. Have a buddy who uses coco and he cant figure out why his yields super suck. His veg sucks and is super slow.

Yeah I've had my temps like 60-75 this entire grow, from seed to now (3 weeks from harvest) and everything has went smooth. 50 though... yikes.

Bring those veg temps up.to 84* and watch for explosive growth.

K I lied, in veg I was around 80 cause I had room for the heater. No room for the heater once they fill out the net

65* and under, and the roots don' like to do their thing and plants stall out.
