The Science
Magnesium and Calcium are essential for growing plants in areas with soft-water. Also, they're important supplements for growers who use coco. That's because coco releases potassium when it degrades, which can lower the amount of Calcium available to your plants. And CAL-MAG makes sure that your plants get all the minerals they need. Calcium also helps with the transportation of nutrients, so your plants can use the other nutrients you provide more efficiently.
On the other hand, Magnesium is essential for the photosynthesis process and it improves the production of chlorophyll. The energy captured through the green pigment, combined with CO2, is used to create sugars. And low levels of Magnesium only reduce your plants' photosynthesis capabilities.
Aside from Calcium and Magnesium, CAL-MAG PLUS comprises a wide range of minerals, which help your plants' growth. The additive contains iron, zinc, boron, molybdenum, copper, iodine, cobalt, and manganese. These trace minerals ensure that your plants develop at optimum levels.
How to Use
Use CAL-MAG PLUS with other Botanicare nutrients at a dosage of 0.5ml up to 1.25 ml/L.
Best Practices
CAL-MAG PLUS is an easy-to-use additive, which you can just mix into your water reservoir. Adjust the pH after you've added the supplement to the tank. First, you must add all nutrients and afterward mix in the additive. Store the product in a safe, dark and cool place. Keep it protected from very low or very high temperatures. Also, keep CAL-MAG PLUS out of children's reach.
