CANNA Calmag Agent

Product detailed description

The main advantages of CALMAG AGENT:

• solves calcium and magnesium (Ca, Mg) deficits
  
• increases nutrient absorption
  
• supports stronger and healthier plants
  
• contributes to higher quality flowers and fruits
  
• it is a product with a high concentration
  
• increases EC too soft water
  
• is necessary for reverse osmosis water
  

What is good water quality?
The water that flows from the tap in households varies by region. We are talking about water from the public water supply. If you have your own well or other local water source, its quality may vary and an analysis is needed.

There is a basic division of water according to the content of dissolved minerals:

• Soft water
  EC is less than 0.4 - EC needs to be increased to 0.4 with CANNA CALMAG AGENT.
  
• Normal water
  EC is between 0.4 - 0.5. It contains dissolved calcium, magnesium and sodium bicarbonate, which stabilizes the pH of the water. All CANNA products are designed to work perfectly with normal water.
  
• Hard water
  It has an EC above 0.5 and contains more calcium and magnesium than the plant can use. If you have hard water, the best way to treat it is to get a reverse osmosis filter. It produces completely demineralized water with almost zero EC. You then mix the filtered water with hard water to reach an EC of 0.4. You can also use only filtered water from reverse osmosis, the EC of which you can adjust to EC 0.4 with CANNA CALMAG AGENT. So you can be sure that the resulting water contains the perfect ratio of minerals for your plants.
  
• Unsuitable water
  Water with an EC above 0.5 due to its sodium and chloride content is unsuitable for cultivation. These ingredients block the intake of other nutrients and can be toxic to the plant. Again, the situation can be solved by reverse osmosis, but in this case the EC value can be solved by mixing filtered and ordinary water only partially. Mix some unsuitable water into the filtered water to reach EC 0.2. This will add enough bicarbonate to stabilize the pH. Use CANNA CALMAG AGENT to call EC at 0.4.
  

How do you know you have the wrong water?
There are several ways to verify water quality. You can try to get an analysis from your water supplier or find information on the waterworks website. They are usually commonly available and updated.

Another option is your own measurements and analyzes. If you do not want to pay for a complete laboratory water analysis, you can use several tools to find out the necessary data:
measure the EC value of your water using a conductivity meter
if you measure EC EC> 0.5 (hard water), continue the test to find out which substances cause hardness
kH and gH tests are used for this, which you can get, for example, in aquarist shops
