I just got some rooted clones today and getting them ready for coco. My water is 0ppm I use 1/4 strength nutrients but on the cal mag should I use it full strength witch brings the water up to 250ppm that's just water and cal mag before nutrients or 1/4 strength too?

I've been using Botanicare Calmag Plus on a seedling at 1/4 strength with distilled water and she loves it. Be sure to check your pH often when using it. For seedlings and clones, its not reccomended to use any sort of supplement, however with RO or distilled water, you should be fine to start at 1/4 strength, less is more... Maybe continue use every other watering to be safe... I just started using it myself.

Ok cool yea all my clones that have rooted I've used 1/4 nuts and they seemed fine just a little lime green. But I just found out I had a cal mag problem on my flowering plants and it was because I use 0ppm water and they weren't getting the cal mag that normal tap water has.
Thanks for the reply

I have another question. During flower is it normal for the fan leaves in the middle and bottom to wilter and die. Som don't even wilter they look like healthy leaves. I had a bad cal mag problem that I'm fixing now could that be the problem or is it normal? I have 12 plants and I loose about 10 to 15 leaves a day.
