90 ppm nutes

Is that ratio of calmag to nutes normal? My friend is gifting me his old RODI and thinking I'll prolly need calmag if using RO water, but always thought it would be less than nutes. Idk of course, just asking to understand it better before I get RO water

Cal/mag is usually a calcium nitrate so I'm gonna assume it's that high for the added nitrogen in veg? Just speculating. I'm also curious.

The calmag that came with my Lotus nutes added very little ppm to my solution, but the GH CaliMagic added close to what smoke is showing.

Smoke's famous around here for growing trees with pretty much nothing but farts and calmag.

@smoke question for ya regarding the UC systems. Is it required the epicenter be centered on the delivery manifold or could one put a 90 degree elbow on the delivery manifold and have the epicenter off center?

I'm thinking with a strong enough pump, that one bend wouldn't impact flow through the entire system too significantly. what are your thoughts?

it almost wants to make me take the air out and see if it drifts faster at all.

15 years ago i was told to add 180 ppm of calmag to starting RO water. Always have. Seeds started in paper 25 days before picture was taken. Seedds germed put in rockwool cubes for 10 days then put in 8 site for 14 dayz, only calmag to 180 no nutes have bean added to this point.
Picture was taken at 25 days from seed and this is the first ive added nuter.

led is at 25% and 36" away???
