CALMAG AGENT

CALMAG AGENT

Optimises your base water for the best results on coco substrate(s)

With varying water quality throughout Australia and New Zealand and more and more people using Reversed Osmosis water on COCO substrates, we have created thé solution to your soft water problems: CANNA CALMAG AGENT.

Our agent ensures a balanced amount of calcium and magnesium specially designed to add to your nutrients. This product will increase the EC value of the water you use, stabilizing the water for your plant to feed on. It makes water harder and will create the best base water for your plant to be able to take in all the nutrients it needs, to grow healthy and strong on a coco substrate.

 

Benefits of CANNA CALMAG AGENT:

  • Perfected for use on CANNA COCO substrate
  • Stabilizing the pH of your water
  • Fewer deficiencies in calcium and magnesium
  • Enhanced nutrient uptake
  • Stronger plants
  • Stimulates better quality flowers
  • Increases the EC of your water

Let’s take a closer look at water

There are four different types of water:

SOFT WATER

EC: below 0.4
Lack of Calcium and Magnesium

NORMAL WATER

EC: between 0.4 & 0.5
Right amount of Calcium and Magnesium

HARD WATER

EC: 0.5 or higher
Excessive amount of Calcium and Magnesium

BAD WATER

EC: 0.5 or higher
Excessive amount of Sodium and Chloride

SOFT WATER

With CANNA CALMAG AGENT you can raise your EC level to 0.4.

NORMAL WATER

Normal water contains the right amount of calcium, magnesium and bicarbonate for a stable pH. All CANNA products are designed to work best with this type of water.

No need to use CANNA CALMAG AGENT.

HARD WATER

The best way to treat this kind of water is to use a reverse osmosis filter and then mix your hard water with the R.O. water, until you reach an EC level of 0.4.

Or, more easily, you can use 100% R.O. water and use CANNA CALMAG AGENT to raise your EC level to 0.4.

BAD WATER

Sodium and chloride block the uptake of nutrients and can even become toxic to your plants. With a reverse osmosis filter, you can remove both these elements. But making a mixture of R.O. water and bad water will not bring in enough calcium and magnesium, only bicarbonate to stabilize the pH.

Make a mixture of R.O water with the bad water until you reach an EC of 0.2 and then add CANNA CALMAG AGENT to this water until you reach an EC level of 0.4, or use 100% R.O. water in combination with CANNA CALMAG AGENT until you reach EC level 0.4.
