My CocoCoir Nutes, always problems..

Hey guys!

I've had 1 successful harvest in coco so far. A bit in bloom I received my first nutrients.
GreenleafNutrients CalMag+ and their Aficionado.

I usually take ½tsp Aficionado and dissolve it in 0.5L and use as concetrate which i add in water, like 1/10 in 2L bottles for handwatering. But I always seem to mess it up, always get burns or spots on leaves. Even though I think I use very little.

Same procedure for calmag+ but alot less. ¼-⅛tsp maybe.

So now im aiming for GH FloraBloom+Micro or just Flora Nova throughout the grow. Is it a good idea?

Last mistake was adding aficionado to a already hot soil, ended up pretty much killing all leaves of my Blue Dream.

Perhaps I can get it right with just aficionado+calmag but right now im clueless.. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

What works in coco for you guys?
No need to flame eacother about whats better, im just curious what works for YOU.

I know I suck at this, no need to point that out.

Okay first off - what is the TDS of the water you are using before nutes are added? Next, is this medium reused from a prior grow? If so how was it flushed after the last grow? Do you have an EC/TDS/PPM meter?

I use only GH MaxiBloom throughout the grow and I never have a discolored leaf. 7 grams in tap water for mature plants and that's all you need. GH FloraNova is excellent as well but more expensive than MB.
