My first watering i try to get 20 to 30% runoff. Never had a problem using it straight out of the bag. 1 to 1.2ec from the start thru harvest pretty much. Don't use straight water. It will change the cec. No need for Cal mag either if ur using a regular hydro base nutrient.

I agree, no need for calmag if using base nutrients and tap water. At least not in my experience.

When I use it run off comes out at 1200 ppm when going in at 750 ppm. I put 1 gal of regular strength feed through each 1 gal of tupur , dtw and it brings it down to starting ppms, then I plant . I'd flush personally if you're planting small plants , 1000+ is strong for a small clone. If 7ts an established plant it may not be as much of an issue

Yeah man you should flush unless you want burnt plants if they are small.

Not needed IMO.. If their straight from the domes hit them with 4 to 500ppm under T5 lights for a week or so. Once you notice new growth raise the nute lvls 6 to 700ppm, and light intensity and away you go.

Tupor needs less cal mag the straight coco be careful with ur doses.. I'd wait to see if it's asks for it before adding any... as far as rinse I would because you could be washing out wherever they put in it.. 1000 is high I assume but I never tested coco runoff. I use bcuzz right out the bag...
Wash new coco?

Just bought some Black Gold put out by SunGro made in Canada and it was hot, burned some fan leaves on four re-potted plants, I was watching them so they got flushed quickly and were ok. Probably a good idea to check the water run off on any new coco before you use it with plants. I'd used the same coco for so long I'd forgotten the problems when it was new.

Flushing it with coco nutrients is not going to harm it, but it may help flush out excess salt and properly charge the cation exchange, thus ruling out any issues.
Personally, after poisoning my plants with UGrow shit coco I will always be super careful, I always used Canna Coco Preofessional, but, silver tongued growshop owner... I made a mistake... Currently running Atami Coco with some basic nutes precharged, very happy

I've been using shitty, cheap Plant!t coco and having pretty decent results.
If I have, say, 4 gallons of coco (either brand new or re-used) in an air pot, I'll run 3 gallons of normal strength nutrient through it, then plant into it.
I don't use anything but GH micro and bloom. I never have any problems with coco.
