How much calmag should i add with my tap water

[Ph 007]

I'll hit then tomorrow with 200ppm calmag and feed till strength 500ppm, iv tested 750 That's with 200 ppm calmag,

Do you think i should let the coco dry a bit first or water daily

 

[Ph 007]

No calmag 500-600ppm of nutrients so 600-700ppm total.

What size pots and how much are you feeding at a time.

Not sure what to.do now lol these are in 1 litre pots about 1 putee6 of coco in them

Just took pics now , this is about 8 hours after the other pics crazy how quick the changing

I'll try watering daily it the take it it be easier to try stuff out next 2 days

@oldskol4evr is bang on need to feed those at least twice a day.

i got to disagree with the 500ppm at the stage your at,they are clones ,nice ones at that,but 450 would be my max and feed twice a day,if your runoff is 750 you have a salt buildup.simple to fix,just make about a gallon of ph water at 6 and put 400 ppm feed in and feed ,take the reading as soon as it comes out pot ,check the numbers,your looking for same or damn close to what your putting in.
after you collect that first runoff imedatly when it starts,let the pot sit and drain out,wait about a hour and then run same mix threw it again yto runoff collect as soon as it comes out ,check it,those numbers right there is what you have to fix,more likely the rest of the gallon you have will do that,main thing is this mate,if you dont wont issues,feed your plants to a good 20 or 30% runoff every time,yes it is a waste,but there aint no issues,mylast grow i flushed 1 time about a week before the flower flip,i had a tiny amount of salt,so i just feed the cal mag at 250 and ph at 6 for 2 days and it washed itself out.
last day and i did check at harvest because i want to reuse the coco,i tested it,it was the exact same as what went in coming out at harvest which was 250ppm,dont ever let it dry either,with coco the cation exchange is important,that air and fresh nutes what makes them bitchs ready for the prom fast

I would agree. I was thinking ph perfect because it's needs that much to stay stable.

 

[Ph 007]

I shall try twice a day and Hipfully it will clear.up quicker, plan is tomorrow 200ppm calmag and canna fees line till get 500 ppm that with the calmag 500ppm.total, and gonna test run off and then few hours later go.off that run.off and add more feed if needs and water again

You guys think this sorta of stress in veg can cause hermi?

And is on run off 6.4.Ok? I like.to see 6.0 /6.2 I usually get it

stable is what we strive for,i like to stay on low side ,plant can take more if it ask,those are some nice cuts too,400 to 450 were i would be with them

Still would say no cal mag. Those nutrients are balanced for coco.

Sorry pal just read the first 3 lines I got for sleep started few cans and spliff hard to stay awake now ha, I'll have read baxk tomorrow before I feed and stat. Inn the low side like.you say and the run off and decide for next feed few later, so 200ppm calmag should be safe,, ill feed till 450 with thet calmag so.i will.be 450 measure.run off.


Off bed now struggling here.

THANKS.for the help guys.ill update tomorrow.hopefully u be around to help

So so.lost now lol i 'll.have read back tomorrow before me feed

that is salt build up mate ,your gonna fix that, 6.2 is high in my opinion,6.4 i would damn sure be flushing. i would still go the 150 cal mag and finish to 400 for total feed myself,500 is to much i think,thing is mate if you want to push the plant,no how first,pushing while there young like this is a train wreck trying to happen,coco is fast becasue you are keeping fresh air and fresh nutes in the root zone at all times ,that doesnt mean throw 2600ppm at them,they only take what they want,i have had plants that wouldnt take any feed in soil ,so dont push um let them be kids you dig.
once you get a couple coco grows under you belt bang away,but have jars full before you wonder off to the unknown hahah

ive never used the line but know my bros work so i agree with that,my tap water i dont use cal mag,and i only use it while im using ro water,thats at first life and right before harvest
i wouldnt even know how to act with 80ppm as a water source hahaaha,when i lived in the city my water was 475 tasted like crap

Haha ikr most would kill for that 80ppm water.

 

[oldskol4evr]

hell this bottle water i been getting at wal mart is 30 ppm,this time year my well gets to about 375,im in a limestone base aquifer,shit just eats up the plumbing.
speeking of what else you gonna do when it 109 outside

 

[Ph 007]

but with all them ml's what was the over all ppm when you feed?
stupid question but i will ask anyway,did you rinse the coco? if it was already ph correct,did you check it?coco has to have cal mag,it has only what you feed it.
im thinking a plant that size i would be running around 400 to 450 ppm total and 150 of it would be cal mag if i was using ro water,with tap water no cal mag ,i already have hard water so it has plenty

No i didn't rinse the coco , canna coco is pre-buffed, im not sure what the ph was, I just made a feed up and phed that and sayr to run off

You look like you have a few defs, but not defs if you know what I mean. Oldy has it cornered with PH, plants cant take up certain parts of it's feed if it's not in the right PH zone, one plant looks like it about to show a big Cal def, which is normally down to PH when your feeding 500ppm, this is more than likely why the run off is 700, nothing is moving through the medium at the right PH, and at 700ppm you should see a bit of burning.

I did use.to.ph to 5.8 last few weeks I'm trying 6.0, ingwt problems with both and if had success with 500ppm from clone I coco , run off usually is after that 500ppm in, is 400ppm it in gonna try bit left limiter said for few days

6-6.2 I found Ideal for Canna coco when I used it.
