Hey first time cultivating help =/

[xclozure]

I start with 3-4PPM ro water,get that up to 275-300 with cal mag, as long as your base water is within 250-300 you should be good…what I do with new coco is I flood the ever loving shit out of it when I transplant

Before or after you do the transplanting? And how do you guys know how much ppm your nutes will raise

It can depend on your source water.

what is the EC of your source water?

What amount of Ca and Mg is in your nutrients?

Most of us use a basic A/B formula

seedling early veg 0.4-0.6
Mid veg 0.6-0.8
Late veg 1.0
Early flower 1.0-1.2
Mid flower 1.0-1.4
Late flower 0.6-1.0 reducing slightly towards the end.
Harvest.

I have to use Calmag in my mix almost every time due to my Source water 0.2EC and my nutrients containing 4% Ca and 2% Mg.


Personally I don’t buffer my coco ( canna coco pro) I don’t even rinse.

I just mix 0.4EC and start using it.

How do you know all these percentages mannn!!

We measure the nutrients we put in with an EC truncheon or PPm meter etc.

after a while you begin to learn the nutrients you’re using and how much they will increase strength of the mix etc.

I know that 80ml of my A and B nutrient bottles gives me a 1.0EC
