No dude. I use magne-cal+ and its At 2ml per litre. If you have too much mg or Cal it can cause deficiencies of other nutes. Lower your level to the recommendations on the bottle.

Bahahahahahaha qualitywell... some say its the same as making a hadron collider if you turn both switches on during veg...but you should try it and be this threads guinea pig...but if a blackhole suddenly happens in your grow tent and sucks out all your plants don't be blaming me

Try it. Only one way to find out. I don't see it being an issue. My BUDMASTER led is full spectrum from start to finish so it should work as intended. I am just started my clones under the MHLed so I may give it a try.
Yeah I think it wouldn't do any harm, Just chew more electricity, Marshydro sells their other one which are the exact same,
But in black & NO switches, All specs are the same , Me thinks the 2 switches is good, But a gimmick

@oilmaker68 thanks, I'm using 5ml per gallon which is close to 2 per litter. I posted pictures of my issues and they're saying 1/4 tsp per gallon of Epsom salts for the Mag deficiency. Hopefully that will take care of my problem. Love this thread BTW, only reason I went with a Mars 2. Probably getting a second unit soon too. They should offer you a free light lol.

Yay... i FINALLY received my seeds. As im in WA we have the strictest customs....even standard veggie seeds are prohibited from importing from other parts of australia, so its a bit of a challenge but Marijuanna-seeds.nl came through (with lots of freebies aswell)... ill add seedsman.com to the list of seed banks, cheers for that
Your going to be alot more than 2 weeks infront, as i dont get my canna coco medium until thursday. I dont have feminized seeds so i have all 15 of the seeds i received sitting in a netted bag with banana peel, and iv separated two and have them soaking in Phytoestrogens (plant estrogen). It wont exactly confirm IF it works to feminize seeds BUT if a male pops up after using either method, ill know personally that it doesnt work for me.
Iv decided on Canna Coco coir, perlite/vermiculite, and clay pebbles mixed as a medium.
My Hydro lights arrived - i STUPIDLY got the mars2 5w leds which dont have the veg and flower switch, so im a little disappointed in myself...wish i had read the listing properly. But i won a 300W LED for $55 free shipping of their original older models aswell.
The nutes im having a VERY hard time trying to figure out which is best. I thought i would stick with the Canna Coco range, but after doing further reading, their seems to be very common issues with deficiency when using this brand, and apparently they have started diluting their nutes, Aswell as their Nutes all being formulated for people with a 200ppm water supply...
and while i havent tested my own water supply yet, i feel their may be something of equal or better quality without the huge price tag.I suppose i might just have to purchase it once, and perhaps take note of all the ingredients to find a better alternative. Hahaha listen to me asking about nutrients mixes, and what one to use...i suppose thats all part of the science/skill behind growing really, is finding the perfect balance of feeding nutes, and if it were so easy, it will be marketed as "all you need grow nutrients" lol.
Most reviews i come across for nutrients are for US growers, so the products i see which people are highly recommending we cant even get here in Australia,

Hey @Bl0nd3y ,
Great to hear your almost there, I seen online how to pick a female seed from a male , Not sure if its true, I am giving that a go now, Here is a link -
As for the 300W LED for $55 free shipping, That's a bargain.
& yeah as for nutes, Each to their own, But see what works for you, Keep me posted on how you go.
Try thewet paper towel trick on 1 or 2 of your seeds, Just plain water, Keep it dark & warm ,You will be suprized.
Talk soon

Noop, we seem to have a very limited range and miss out on the good stuff
we do have -
flairform Calmag http://www.flairform.com/Products/cmx.htm
Grotek Calmax http://www.grotek.net/en/products/product.aspx?id=16
Bloom calmag http://bloomadvancedfloriculture.com.au/products/bloom-cal-mag/

Those are all calmag supplements, not bloom nutes. You need a base npk nute.

Thats pretty cool- interesting to see if it works, Thanks for sharing, im going to try it and see if it works aswell.
and yep the paper towel trick is what im planning on doing... on a plate with a bowl over the top in the over (our oven is broken and doesnt have a good seal, so on the "keep warm" option it stays around 36degrees) i'll turn it on and off throughout the day to keep it around 30degrees - when should i put them in the rockwool?

Hahaha yeah i thought you were talking about Cal-mag in particular, i didnt know botanicare made a variety, as we dont get it here
.... Can you recommend any other lines / brands with success in coco? i can see we have ...
DutchMaster Gold
Cornucopia Coco
GT Coco
Hy-Gen Coco
Cyco Grow
Dutchfest
Nutrifield coco
canna coco
will they all work as well as each other or is nutrients where one should really splurge a little for best results?

Canna has a pretty simple-to-use lineup if it isn't tits-high expensive in Aussieland. I have seen many many successful runs with Canna. I can't speak on the others as I haven't ever seen a grow in person that has used them.

Hey @Bl0nd3y , I don't know about the oven, Or the bowl over it, The reason why I said to use cling wrap is so it stays moist inside & the warmth will keep the humidity under the cling wrap, You will see & gets droplets of water, Condensation builds up which is good, when I say warm, As long as its dark you will be fine, Just put it under your bed or something or in the cupboard .

Damn, shame the others dont have much rep, they are alot cheaper LOL. I reckon for the first grow ill stick with Canna coco, that was i can be sure my investment will pay off rather than be disappointed with the first grow
Ohh ok, good thinking. got them under cling rap and have them in the garage where its warm and dark

I would seriously recommend starting a new thread about this.Damn, shame the others dont have much rep, they are alot cheaper LOL. I reckon for the first grow ill stick with Canna coco, that was i can be sure my investment will pay off rather than be disappointed with the first grow

I haven't been on the forums long, but I have seen quite a few Aussies on here, they just post in random places, lol. I would consider starting a thread to ask about nutrients in Aussie, not only to find the best and cheapest there, but also because you would have someone experienced with the line to ask questions to later.

I use general hydroponics ph up/down. I Find it very strong so it's a lil trickier to get your ph right but you get 3x more for your money than with other brands
As for nutes I usually try stick to organic so I'm not the most experienced but this time I'm using Botanicare pure blend grow and pure blend pro bloom for my base feed and calmag and hydroplex for supplements if you can't get botanicare try the brand called Home and Garden they are a very common reliable brand if you can find it I have a few gallon of their soil a/b feed I used to use just laying around. I still use it occasionally as a top up feed if any of my organic plants start showing deficiencies on them from my soil not holding enough goodness of its own I know that brand is far from organic but it's always been a good quick fix for me
