Hoping to get some input on why one fert method (pps) uses magnesium and the other does not (EI)? Is EI relying on the magnesium level commonly found in tap water or is magnesium simply not a big deal in that method?
Also why is calcium not dosed in either of these methods? Once again, are they relying on minimal amount of calcium from tap water?
I have been trying to do a rather complicated RO water mix that has left a lot of things overlooked as I learn (like calcium and magnesium) and my plants look like a science experiment for those deficiencies (which is kind of cool and fun to know now BUT I want to get this right and refine my weaknesses
Just very curious as to why the two methods differ greatly with their inclusion and exclusion of magnesium and the reasons for that? Any thoughts on calcium being overlooked in both methods would be appreciated as well.
Thank you.
