i started off with a light dose (5ml/gal i think...) then let the mixing rez settle for 2 days and took PH/PPM readings and was around 350-400ppm. I wanted to start higher then that for veg since i prevegged a little in my ezcloner with GH macro @ around 400-500ppm.
So i added i think like 3ml/gal more HEavy to balance the ratio out and increase ppms but it went higher then i wanted. i think like 800-900ppm. so i played the balancing game of RO here.... PH down there... etc. its not how i want the rez mixing to go but with any new system u gotta learn the shit and make tweaks as u go along.
anyways regarding the
calmag im thinking about adding a small amount in myself since during transplant i had noticed interesting deficiences that im not sure wat exactly it all was. mite of been hardwater issues before when i started rooting. my tap water is terrible at the shop. sumthing like 500ppm at 8.0ph so im always using RO now. now that the older leaves have been sucked dry from nute uptake, its leaving strange signs on fan leaves. End result my ladies are working to get bak to a dark green during veg as they should be. ill be doing an update in a couple days and get bak to u once i see how the adjustments worked out.
i know the owner of Field16 ag so im gonna give him a ring and see whats up cuz even he said no need for cal mag supp.
