Or how would u get around the deficincys?

6 is best. Those are optimum pH element absorption charts, Manganese can probably still be used by the plant in small amounts. I think calcium and magnesium are more important for the plant.

Should I add Cal Meg then?

The size of the net pots does not seam to be a problem, the greatest portion of the root mass is in the reservoirs. Those photos are older and do not show that there is only one plant remaining in the planters (started with eight, lost four as males, and two strangled or shaded out by their big sister!). I have the reservoir marked (inside) as to the volume and now, when I fill the reservoir with six gallons, it shows filled to seven gallons. That would indicate about one gallon of root mass!
Just allow approximately three gallons for each plant and You should be ok.

Check the water that You are using. Here the city puts out an annual water quality report that lists all of the dissolved solids and various chemicals. Here We have well water and surface reservoirs (rain run off) for our water supply and it all ready contains a fair amount of the need trace elements in it, so I do not use any additional calcium/magnesium supplements.

If you grow dwc with fox farm trio big bloom grow big and tiger bloom do you need to add calimag? Or anything else because makeing sure it's phed

I use the same stuff. I also had the same question so I asked MASTER GROWER GREEN for advice. His response? Feed em more Cal Mag feed at max label dose !. Remember, Green said this not me.
