This liquid supplement provides soluble calcium and magnesium to crops that are deficient, whether grown in reverse osmosis water, coco fibre, or with a low-calcium fertiliser. It is dosed at 1.5 ml per litre of solution and will not block drippers.
The summary
- What you receive: a bottle of liquid NPK 2-0-0 supplement, with 4% calcium oxide and 1% magnesium oxide.
- When to use it: with reverse osmosis water, in coco fibre, or alongside a low-calcium fertiliser, to treat a confirmed deficiency.
- The dose: 1.5 ml per litre of nutrient solution, 2 ml with reverse osmosis water.
- How to choose: the comparison tool shows how it compares to Epsom salt, which supplies magnesium without calcium.
Soluble calcium and magnesium for RO water, coco fibre and hydroponics
Calcium and magnesium are two secondary elements that a soilless crop can run short of, because very soft water provides almost none and some fertilisers contain little of either. This liquid supplement supplies them in a fully soluble form, easy for the plant to absorb and free from deposits in drippers. You add it to your usual nutrient solution at the same time as the fertiliser, whenever your water or grow medium calls for it.
🧪 Two elements, two roles
Calcium
It builds cell walls and strengthens plant tissue. A deficiency scorches the edges of young leaves and blackens the tips of fruits.
Magnesium
It sits at the centre of the chlorophyll molecule and aids phosphorus transport. Its deficiency yellows the older leaves first, between veins that remain green.
These two symptoms do not appear at the same level of the plant, which makes them easy to tell apart. Magnesium is a mobile element: when it is in short supply, the plant draws it back from older leaves to feed new growth, so yellowing starts at the bottom. Calcium, by contrast, stays fixed where it has been deposited, and its deficiency affects organs that are still forming, young leaves and the tips of fruit. On tomatoes or peppers, blossom end rot is the most familiar example.
💧 Dosage based on your water
The standard dose is 1.5 ml per litre of nutrient solution, suitable for most crops and even the most demanding plants. With reverse-osmosis water, which contains almost no minerals, this rises to 2 ml per litre. For a 30-litre reservoir, you add 45 ml, and a one-litre bottle covers just over 22 fill-ups. The supplement should be used in response to a recognised deficiency, never as a matter of routine, as an excess of calcium and magnesium inhibits the uptake of potassium and iron.
pH controls calcium uptake
A calcium deficiency often results from a pH that is too low rather than from a shortage in the water, as the element is less readily absorbed below 5.8. Before adding this supplement, measure your solution with a pH drop test kit. If it is too acidic, bringing it back towards 6.5 is sometimes enough to make the symptoms disappear, and you only dose the calcium if the deficiency persists.
No supplement needed with soft water formulas or NovaMax
The soft water versions of TriPart and DualPart, as well as DualPart Coco and NovaMax, already contain the calcium needed, including when used with reverse-osmosis water, and this supplement should not be added to them. In hydroponics, excess calcium can react with the sulphur in the solution and form a deposit at the bottom of the reservoir. If this occurs, clean the reservoir before preparing a new solution. The liquid causes serious eye injury: wear eye protection when measuring doses.
🥥 Starting out with coco coir
Coco fibre retains some of the calcium and magnesium from the solution passing through it, particularly during its first wetting. If you prepare it yourself using a fertiliser from another brand, saturate it with water dosed at 1 to 1.5 ml per litre, then maintain the same dose in your solution for the first two weeks. Fast-growing annuals tolerate a continuous feed. The 50 L bag of coco fibre from the shop arrives pre-rinsed and stabilised, ready to use straight away.
