Canna calmag and coco A&B all the way and now in week 4 flower 

 

1st time growing wirh no boosters and plants are loving it as much as my wallet is saving £60 a bottle of boost.

Are all the additives needed? Whats the minimum you'd need in coco except from cal mag 

 

I guess it depends on what base nutrients you are using. I use Hycrocrop’s Hydrosol dry powder nutes and they specifically say supplements/additives are not needed. Plant health has always been excellent in my experience. I use the same nutrients in coco and NFT.  Sal

Canna A/B for coco

or 

Dutch Pro Hydro coco grow A/B

or

ionic coco grow A/B


pH adjustment liquids etc 
pH tester (I use a dropper kit)

EC tester (bluelab EC truncheon my choice)

 

whether or not you need to supply additional Ca or Mg will come down to your source water and what it already has in it at what ppm etc.

I use hydrocrop hydrosol and  add cal mag when needed:yinyang: (in coir)


 

how many grams per litre are you using?

 

I’ve seen 500g for £15

1kg for £22 and am wondering if it’s worthwhile based on grams required. 
 

As an example how many grams does it take to increase your source water by 1.0EC?

 

regardless of your starting water EC!

 

 

same question also to you @greengal

It's very inexpensive. You use the Hydrosol A and B dry powders to make two liquid concentrates, then use the concentrates to make your feed solution. The 500g pack would make 1000 litres of feed solution at 1.0EC. Sal

@JonDaMon You make a base liquid with 100g per ltr then use that diluted at up to around 10ml per ltr in flower ,less in growth cycle, And its the cheapest feed that works that ive found so far:yinyang:
