I have 40 lights and I need some serious help PLEASE, I have to yield well.
I have been seeing deficiencies in veg, nothing too bad, but I'm coming from RDWC and I'm used to big green lush plants, I haven't quite mastered this coco thing yet with it's CalMag intricacies and salt buildup dealio. I would like to take care of this ASAP.
I am using Floranova Grow, Liquid Karma, Calmag, and GH rapidstart in veg. I start with 50ppm RO water, add CalMag until it hits 200PPM, then add my LK, rapidstart, and FloraNova until it hits about 300 PPM for new clones and up to 750PPM for larger vegging plants. Does this sound right? This recipe works well for my mothers so far, they're green and lush and look great, but I've been seeing some strange yellowing on my main vegging plants, I'm concerned I might be using too much of the CalMag?
I just did a flush and watered with my regular recipe just in case I did overdo it.. I would just like the input of an experienced coco grower here on the CalMag issue. I can never seem to find a definitive answer in relation to starting PPM and base nutrient being used.
edit- PH is always adjust to 5.8 before watering and I water about every other day, I allow them to dry out between waterings and I'm VERY careful not to water too often.
