Going to make some auto flower seeds

Does this look right water ppm ,shit my water ppm is no where near this,it’s really low someone told me to use cal mag to bring the water ppm up
Yeah, normally you would raise all your nutes equally to raise the PPMs. You know what I mean, a higher concentration, of everything tho, so it stays the proper balance. Calcium is a strong antacid, and will raise PH badly.

Friend of mine told me to use cal mag to bring
It up to 160ppm I don’t know if he’s talking
Out his ass or not
 
Tap water

Hmmm. Well i guess it depends on the nutes you are using. Might just be able to raise the ppm's of the nute solution and be fine. I wouldnt add more calmag unless its asking for it imo. I got lock out when i did.

hes not wrong. This is what is working for his setup. But 160ppm of calmag might be too much extra N and Cal. Depending what the other bottles have in them.

The first week I only use water, and dont even PH. They get the food from the 2 embryonic leaves (I know thats not what they're called).

Try foliar feeding it calmag. If the plant respond well, maybe add a bit into the solution.

He said bring the water ppm up to 160 using the cal
Mag,I’m using the fox farms trio of nutes but I don’t use the tiger one just grow big
And big bloom

Yah i wouldnt add more nitrogen, you are already at Really high levels of it.
 
I am using GB and BB as well. Only because james from loud seeds said run higher levels of N for seed breeding.

Not sure what my base ppms are, but i am at a 6.8ph - with sulfur for sure being present.
I just add like 3ml BB and 5ml GB. The BB drops the ph enough where acid isnt needed.
