i’m running 284 and 444 and EWC but do i need to also run calmag with my waterings? maybe once a week?

i’m using FFOF soil

Shouldn't need anything for a while with FFOF. How old and big are the plants and in what size pots? If using tap water you shouldn't need any calmag.

A lot of P in those GG nutes. I've got a bunch of their stuff and don't like the high P in most of it. Managed to burn my small plants using it with soilless ProMix HP so going easy on it now.

I now use kelp,alfalfa and frass mixed equal parts with 444.Maybe an extra cup of kelp.I Dont use the bloom anymore.

You can add a sprinkle of epsom to your water for Mg,I think gaia has enough Ca.

How long have you been using that much kelp?

I just mixed equal parts 444 & bloom. Figured get the best of both worlds. Fingers crossed!

Soil gets rotation every run ,not growing now so its just sitting with worms in it.Ill top dress the soil a month before.
So I guess my soil has 4-5 runs now,so approx 2 yrs.My stems are huge compared to when I first started.

Cool. Ive got a 25# bucket of it, but I've heard to go easier since it has salt and shit. Good to hear you use that much without issues.

lemme ask you a question!

i’m running all 4x8s. each one has 1000W actually draw of LED. would it be beneficial to my garden to add Co2?

i found a 20lb tank, regulator and controller. couldn’t i just run tubing to all three tents? or would i need separate controllers? (see the goal? one tank, three tents lol)

Its a lot more complicated then that.
