Description

Correct calcium and magnesium shortfalls before they cost you a harvest

GreenPlanet Pro-Cal is a calcium, magnesium and iron supplement that prevents and corrects the deficiencies that show up most often in coco coir, and on reverse osmosis or rainwater, where calcium and magnesium sit too low for healthy development. It is designed to run alongside any nutrient programme, mineral or organic, from early growth right through to the week before harvest.

Key Benefits

  • Calcium, magnesium and iron together - the three elements that go short first on soft water
  • Built for coco - GreenPlanet specifically recommend it wherever coco substrates are used
  • Works with any base feed - it is a supplement, not a competing base nutrient
  • Also re-buffers a coco substrate - at a higher rate, with a reduced-strength nutrient solution
  • Runs the whole cycle - vegetative growth and flowering, stopping a week before harvest

Interveinal yellowing, weak stems and blossom-end problems

Coco coir holds on to calcium and magnesium and releases them slowly, and reverse osmosis water carries almost none to begin with. The result is a plant that looks well fed but shows yellowing between the leaf veins, soft growth and poor flower set. Adding calcium and magnesium as a dedicated supplement fixes the shortfall without forcing the rest of the feed up.

How to Use

  • With any nutrient programme: 1.25 mL per litre, until one week before harvest
  • Coco growers: GreenPlanet recommend Pro-Cal on all coco substrates at this rate
  • Re-buffering a coco substrate: a one-third strength nutrient solution with Pro-Cal at 2 mL per litre
  • pH: hold the nutrient solution between 5.8 and 6.3
  • Solution temperature: keep between 18 and 22°C

Technical Specifications

  • Role: Calcium, magnesium and iron supplement
  • Typical dose: 1.25 mL per litre
  • Coco re-buffering dose: 2 mL per litre with a one-third strength solution
  • Window: Whole cycle, stopping one week before harvest
  • Best suited to: Coco coir, reverse osmosis and rainwater
  • Media: Soil, coco, hydroponics
  • pH range: 5.8 to 6.3

Stage Per 1 L Per 10 L
With any nutrient programme, until one week before harvest 1.25 ml 12.5 ml
Re-buffering a coco substrate (with a one-third strength nutrient solution) 2 ml 20 ml
Note — GreenPlanet publish both rates as millilitres per litre of water, and specifically recommend Pro-Cal on coco substrates at 1.25 mL/L. Hold the nutrient solution at pH 5.8 – 6.3 and 18 – 22°C. Their EC targets are calculated on RO water, so tap water raises the stated EC. Check pH and EC after mixing.
