    Include CalMag every other watering for a coco grow?

    The grow guide says to use nutes every other watering, and use pH'ed plain water in between. Should I be adding calmag to the pH'ed water (the non-nute water) for a coco grow? Thanks.

    Cal Mag in every drop of water that ever hits my coco. Including the initial flush
    completed 7 grows
    what I have learned so far:
    environment maters more than nutrients
    at least a dab of nutrients in every watering
    effective flushing before harvest is critical to quality

      Coco pulls calcium out of your water and makes it unavailable to the plant. You must fill the coco's need for calcium until it is full. Then calcium in your water can go to the plant

            I have not heard of the same issue with Pro-mix. However, calcium should always be available so I may not do a special boost at the beginning, but I would include cal-mag in all my water.

            I am going to give every watering. I was only giving it with nutes
