Canna – Calmag

Canna Calmag Agent is specifically developed to address the challenge of increasing the electrical conductivity (EC) of soft water. This product is particularly beneficial for individuals residing in soft water areas or those utilizing reverse osmosis (RO) water. It serves to “harden” the water, ensuring it provides the necessary minerals for robust and healthy plant growth.

How Canna Calmag Agent Works:

1. Optimal Water Composition: Canna nutrients and related products are designed to work ideally with water having a background EC of calcium and magnesium between 0.4 and 0.7. This range ensures a stable pH and supplies adequate calcium and magnesium to plants.
2. Role of Calcium and Magnesium: Normal water contains essential secondary nutrients like calcium and magnesium, which play crucial roles in plant metabolism, health, and overall development at all growth stages.
3. Challenges with Soft Water or RO Water: Soft water and RO water, with an EC below 0.4, lack sufficient calcium and magnesium. These vital nutrients are integral for plant well-being. Failure to address this deficiency can lead to various issues, impacting plant health, crop quality, and size.
4. Preventing Deficiencies: If you use soft water or RO water, it’s essential to balance the calcium and magnesium content back to normal levels before preparing your nutrient solution with Canna nutrients. Neglecting this adjustment can result in deficiencies that adversely affect plants.
5. EC Adjustment: For those with water having an EC above 0.8, Canna recommends using a reverse osmosis unit to reduce it to nearly zero. Subsequently, Canna Calmag Agent can be employed to raise the EC back to a desirable level of 0.4.

In summary, Canna Calmag Agent serves as a valuable tool for growers dealing with soft water or RO water, ensuring that the essential calcium and magnesium levels are appropriately balanced to support optimal plant growth and development.
