Rusty spots, curled tips and pale new growth are the classic signs of plants running short of calcium and magnesium, and coco, soft rainwater and strong LED lighting all make it more likely. Cal by Bloom, sold in the US as Cal-Mag, tops both up: calcium nitrate and magnesium nitrate with chelated iron and zinc, at 1ml per litre in every feed. A litre makes 1,000 litres. It carries nitrogen (6.8-0-0), so it adds to your feed's N, and it's a supplement for a gap in your water or medium, not a fix for spotting caused by pH, overwatering or root problems.

Built for coco and soft waterThe setups that run short of calcium and magnesium fastest are the ones it's made for.

Grower's Tip

  • Running coco or rainwater? Put Cal in from the first feed rather than waiting for spots to show.
  • Check your pH before you blame calcium. Lockout from pH drift looks a lot like a deficiency.
  • Cal carries nitrogen, so factor it in late in flower if your feed is already heavy on N.
  • Add it after your base nutrients and stir it through, then check EC and adjust pH last.
  • Running Silica? Silica still goes in first, on its own, before anything else.
  • Shake well before use. Colour and consistency vary a little between batches, which is normal.

How To Use It

1Shake the bottle well.
2Fill your reservoir with water. If you run Silica, add it first and stir it through.
3Add your base nutrients, then add Cal at 1ml per litre and mix thoroughly.
4Check EC and adjust pH last.
5Feed every watering, seedling to late flower.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Bloom Cal a cal-mag?

Yes. It's a calcium and magnesium supplement, sold in the US as Bloom Cal-Mag.

Do I need Cal in coco?

Yes, usually. Coco holds onto calcium and magnesium, so most coco growers run a cal-mag every feed.

How much do I use?

1ml per litre, every feed.

Does Cal contain nitrogen?

Yes. It's made from calcium and magnesium nitrate, so it reads 6.8-0-0 and adds to your feed's nitrogen.

Will Cal fix brown spots on my leaves?

It will if they come from a calcium or magnesium shortage. Check your pH and watering first, because lockout and root problems look similar.

Do I need to cut back my base nutrients?

No. Bloom designs its additives to run alongside your base feed at its normal rate, so you add Cal on top rather than in place of anything.

How long does a bottle last?

A litre makes 1,000 litres of feed at 1ml per litre. The 300ml makes 300 litres.

Is it organic?

No. It's a mineral supplement, and Bloom's range is not certified organic.

Growers First, Retailers Second

Welcome to The Grow Guys

We built The Grow Guys from the soil up — well, coco and perlite. Before we sold gear, we bought it, ran it, and learned the hard way what's worth the money and what ends up in the shed. That's the filter everything on our shelves passes through. No sales scripts, no rebadged junk, no telling you what you want to hear. Just gear we'd run ourselves and advice from people who actually grow. Chasing higher yields, tighter flowers, or your first harvest? You're in the right place.
