In the future, after hydrating the coco blocks in the drum dump the coco into a large fabric pot (I use a 30G or 60G but you can use whatever size needed depending on how many blocks you are hydrating).

Run a hose for several minutes through the coco and you will see the runoff change from brown to clear.

Then you can go ahead and water with some Cal-Mag to “charge” the coco.
thabk you for your advice ..i feel i did it wrong this time. will it affect my plants alot ..or it will stunt it completely ??

Seriously? Can you say "air pruning"?
No, but I can say water leaking out the sides, overly humid air in the room and medium drying out too fast. Is it worth all that for air pruned roots? If it was a tree that would be growing for years then maybe, but a weed plant that will be growing for a few months, doubt it would help much. All you do is prune the roots when potting up to larger ones, cut the ends of the roots off with scissors.

It depends on your growing style. For DTW coco with multiple feeds per day fabric pots work great! For outdoor it keeps the root zone much cooler than traditional black plastic pots.

How is it still 65 ppm if it's RO? Using a ZeroWater deionizing filter pitcher makes it 000 PPM, they include a salts meter with the pitcher. I think you need to change the membranes or whatever, or it's leaking around the membranes, something is obviously wrong.

Hmmm ... 2 things
1 - RO water will ruin ph meters
2 - RO water has no ph so 6.5 hopefully means he added a touch of PH up before he checked it :)

I said ppm not pH though, two completely different things. Ppm is the salts concentration, pH is the acidity/alkalinity.
