    Default Answered: Soft water

    Hi guys if my tap water is soft should I use calmag with my feed in coco?
    I've tested the water out of the tap an the ppm isn't reading anything.

    Do you find that it helps your situation?

    Yep. I add some CaMg to my regular nutrient feed mix which keeps those deficiencies under control."

    Canna recommend bringing your ec to 0.4 with calmag, then adding feed

    Easy-T recommends that you bring your EC up to .4 with calmag.

    That's all I needed to know and followed suit.

    If I bring my e.c up too 0.4 using calmag (which does sound good) then that would take me over my dosage of 1m per litre!!

    Yeah I read the same but they do there own calmag so if it was true why would they bring there own calmag out if its already in the feed. Strange

    If that the case give it a try, works for me I use 0.25ml per ltr roughly to get me to 0.4

    Easy T I did the calmag to 0.4 ec and ph to 5.8 no feed see how it goes for a couple of days. If the new growth looks good then maybe a lack of calcium magnesium
