you don't need cal mag, unless running ro water which nobody in here does i bet.

and people call me a cunt for using bloombastic lol
I use steam distilled for clones so add a drop of formulex to a litre of distilled to get mineralised water for that very reason

The Dog A cuts are just sitting there chilling it seems, they're still healthy so it's just a waiting game.

Use a syringe to water em mate the way I do it is pop them in a cup of water for 24hrs then put em between sum kitchen roll in a plasti tube bang em on the sky box and they should of cracked and tap root should be out day after put em in jiffy pellet and as a syringe to wet the pellet they aint needin to much and deffo no nutes till about a wk later after the wk as passed pot em uo but use the syringe to water em still job done no over watering no burn all is gravy

Funny you should say that, I jus ordered a measuring syringe yesterday lol. Yeah I think I'm gonna try that next go. I usually get the beans to crack then throw em in like 1 litre pots which I end up overwatering. Jiffy pellets seems like a better idea.

Yeah man lethal shit, was first run living down here so thought id better test it. Up in wales its straight from tap to plant, valley springs and all.

If you have bang on water its such a fucking bonus not having to fuck about with ph down.

how about starting with the full quote and not just the part that suits you eh?

i don't use carbon filtered water, my tap water is ok, i always try and aerate it as much as possible, especially if in the final watering phase. i can smell tap water in bud.
i have never used any cal/mag specific product before, i grow in coco, so are you telling me every plant i have ever grown has been deficient in calcium and magnesium?

Yh bro little tip just soak ya pellets as u would take em out the water but do not squeeze excess water out of em let em dry on the side for a few hour and pop ya sprout in em as wen you squeeze it out I find the roots av trouble brakin out the jiffys as its to compacted.

Yeah, cheers chedz I'll give that a shot next time. See if it improves my shitty sprouting record lol.
my germing technique is no technique, pop the seed ontop of the moist soil, push it down a bit with a pencil, leave in dark place....every fukker germs and I haven't touched them, the tap root has unrestricted growth this way which is why I don't germ in jiffys
