Coco Coir and nutrient help

I currently am running an 8 ball kush that i got off of attitude seedbank in a coco coir mix with perlite and hydroton, i JUST ordered online the CANNA A&B, CANNA rhizotonic, CANNAZYM, and CANNA PK13/14. i downloaded all the directions of use.

HOWEVER, my issue is with how to add them all to water and give them to the plants...some people say to add all the nutes you need then PH plus or minus to get it to around 5.8-6.0 for coco.

others say do NOT add A&B together(and website for CANNA) so im thinking how do i get A&B in the plant if they arent compatible?

if anyone uses ALL of these, it would be a great help on how to add them all.

example: can i add the recommended amounts to 1 gallon of water(besides A&B) and water the plant? or is there another way that works best?

im a noobie to coco growing, and indoor growing at that. but i have these ordered and heard great things, so i thought i would ask how to prepare these nutes for feeding.

any links or pro tips would be helpful.

currently the plant is 1 1/2 months old and about 14 inches tall but topped 2 times so it bushed out instead of grew vertically. i use a 40,000 lumen T5 or a 600w digital hps/mh, and use a dechlorinator for city water.


thanks for looking, and possibly helping!

Fill the reservoir with water, add the required "A", mix well, then add an equal measure of "B", mix well, do so with each nute, then ph the water and feed. Do not mix A and B together by themselves, as in no water. that creates an unusable mix that will kill shit..lol, that is what the website is referring to.

Also before you add anything base or sups you should check your water ppm levels, if lower than 250 out of the tap
or your using r/o water then add enough cal-mag to achieve 200-250 ppm this will help stop mico deff from poping
up on you!

like said above just make sure you mix well

I use a very simple, non technical nute regime for my plants... all strains.
It was give to me by a 'coco pro' and it works despite my previous experience and understanding of nutrients...

I start with RO water....
(Added in this order)

Calmag - 2ml per litre (I use Grotek)
Canna Coco A - 2ml per litre
Canna Coco B - 2ml per litre
Root Stimulator - 1ml per litre (I use Rock Supercharge)
H&G Drip clean - 0.1ml per litre

Should put you at an EC of 1.6 - 1.8
Add water until you reach 1.6 if higher... 1.6 is your number

Mix and wait a few hours... PH to 5.8

Feed from rooted clone all through veg until 12/12 flip and you start to get flower sites.
When you do..

Add Bud Booster - 1ml per litre (I use Rock Resinator) after Root Stimulator

Once again, reduce EC back down to 1.6 by adding water.

Depending on strain, reduce back Canna Coco A & B by half after 60% of flowering cycle (ie. 8 week strain, week 5 or 6... 12 week strain, week 8 8)

Last week run un ph'd water.

And no... it is not too hot, I was sure it would be at first, but I was wrong.

The only other thing I do is foilar feed daily with un ph'd Calmag solution in a spray bottle during veg.

It's that simple.

And remember... coco cant be too wet. Treat it like hydro, not soil.
If the leaves droop or claw, its because it needs more food = water more.

Good luck!

Cheers Jimmy.
