    Hello, Here is the lowdown on foliars with Canna's rhizo & boost: (Foliars will work much better then root feeds with both of these products since carbohydrates & hormones are more easily absorbed through the leaves, and Amino Acids cant be absorbed through the root system at all and...

    yes, you can use the mag-amped (1% Mg. & 4% Sulfer) in your feed water or as a foliar and i believe it also has some beneficial tree-saps and plant extracts... and as jeff said, epson salt is 10% magnesium and 13% sulfer and it would be just fine to use and cost a lot less at your local drug store.

    yea, coco can hold ten times its weight in water but whats amazing is that it can still contain 23% oxygen withen the medium... it also releases humic and other benificial acids and has natural fungal resisting properties and beneficial fungi like Trichoderma (unless the manufacturer steamed the...

    any other symptoms? are the leaves still dark green besides the spots? any rusting on the leaf edges? are the leaves curling up or down slightly? are the spots round specks or blotchy shaped?

    The Official Canna Coco & Nutrients Thread

    General hydroponics has a new organic line called General Organics and they make a all organic Cal/Mag supplement that also has some sugar carbs added to it... I have been using it for a few months with decent results.. Magical seems to be more beneficial imo but it may also effect quality.

    The Official Canna Coco & Nutrients Thread

    Ive also found that flowering cannabis plants tend to handle and like much more Magnesium then most nutes provide(some may have plenty Mg in their tap water though)... Iron can usually stand to be slightly increased also. Also, Canna nutes are lacking a lot of Micro Nutrients so supplementing...

    The Official Canna Coco & Nutrients Thread

    I use the PK 13/14 through the first weeks of bloom for flower development and a high P fert like a MOAB or Shooting Powder for adding girth/weight during the last couple of weeks and after the flower has devoloped most of the way... Many companies like House & Garden have feeding charts...

    No flushing is needed and it may or may not cause unwanted stress to your roots and microbiology and more.

    Definitely a deficiency but it could be caused by lockout/ pH issues... At first glance without more details i would say it may be a calcium issue... what pH and nutrients/additives are you using? Do you have any idea of what is in your tap water or are you using RO water?

    just typed a long ass response and it got dumped by my computer :( you want 10-30% total runoff... you will have to experiment becuase the pump size (PSI) and length of irrigation line along with temps, RH, strain, ect, ect, ect., will all be factors that you need to figure out. Try 5-10...

    Coco Growers Unite!

    Not really... I would probably suggest General Organics... or Roots Organics by Aurora would be my first organic choice, but it is really expensive. You will have a hard time finding a organic nutrient line that is designed and formulated for hydroponic use and even if you do it won't have the...

    Coco Growers Unite!

    There are a few different ideas on this but here is what Canna says: Canna distributed a brochure on their coco and one section states the following: "The most reliable method for measuring the nutrient levels in COCO is the 1:1.5 extraction method. The pH and EC of the drain water generally...

    Coco Growers Unite!

    yea dont use plain water... use the pH and ppm that you want your plant to get. The reason i say to use a large amount of water is so you can flush out all the old nutrients/water. as long as you get a good amount of run off with each watering then you shouldnt get any salts building up.

    I would have answered but I couldnt understand your question... 1.) Im not clear about what you mean by "dirt planters" ? 2.) Coco is definitely Hydro and not dirt at all so it's probably better to use dirt if you want it to be like dirt. 3.) Are you using a planter bed or 3 gallon containers...
