Things def seem to be getting worse in veggie town. Usually have roots sticking out bottom of pots and now I can't find any. They perked up few days ago after I let pots get lighter , but now I dunno...I suspect it had something to do w spraying em....i think they'll grow out of it
Well said and thank you for your time and wisdom. Yea 4ml would be on the low end of that range around 400ppm. I do think it's more of an imbalance. I'm still confused with Calmag. Most say they bring there RO to 150-200 ppm then add base, others use as needed or use tap which isn't an option for me at 439 ppm. I read that in case of cal or mag short it's best to just up the base nutes , especially being a noob to maintain a proper nute ratio. With canna coco being pre buffered, I would think calmag supplementation wouldn't be needed.Consistency is indeed key. Keep it simple.
I'm not familiar with what 4ml each of A and B comes out to in terms of EC, but by the looks of things the strength you are currently feeding seems like just a little bit too much but that could be because of the nutrient build up from letting them dry out. I'd probably back off on strength a bit but not too much. I'd say generally somewhere between 400-600ppm(0.8-1.2EC) is a good ballpark figure to start.
I just read back on the page about the spray. In my experience sprays have always proven to give more trouble than they are worth.... Especially when mixing multiple products together. If you stop spraying that is one less variable to worry about. Just my 2 cents on that.

I would urge you to drop Zeus Juice. Humic acid causes more harm than good in hydro and is better suited in organics IMO. I'd wager it's affecting the pH of your coco. You really only need Canna A/B and maybe PK to be successful. It's best to limit variables so I would recommend staying on track with just r/o and Canna A/B for now. Then go from there. The less stuff in the mix the easier it is to figure out what's going on.I mentioned that my ph keeps rising, would you recommend adding back just a half gal to a Gal of tap to help with fluctuating? Or should I just stay on track with watering everyday and see if it works itself out. I'm running DTW also I add about 15ml of Zeus juice humid,Ful acid which would help I assume if I added back some tap. I kind of feel like that's when the ph issues started when was was doing half and half tap ro, could be wrong .

WAI agree heartily. The link I posted above contains a breakdown of the nutes, and they look pretty complete to me. Less is often more.
This was with a slurry test, but your right I think it will be fine with consistent feeds.Why are you chasing pH run-off in coir ? Natural pH of coir is around 6.2- 6.4 and the media always tries to correct its self to its natural pH . Every feed corrects the pH balance.
My recommendation is just use the A and B until you get the plants growing well. Your ppm is quite safe, and can probably be increased. Canna recommends 15ml to the gallon on their page, its not clear if that's 15 ml each or total. Given that, I'd got to 10 ml/gal and try that for a week. That said, my experience is in hydro, not coir, and I will readily defer to anyone with more direct experience.Should I drop cannazyme also? I feed this morning at 5.8 ph with 4ml canna a and b. Came out to around 350 ppm. No rhziotonic, seaweed, or cannazyme, hydroguard.
