hello, I was at my local nursery looking for cal mag and happened upon a plant food. its in powder form and the ingredients read as follows, Nitrogen %5.0, Phosphate 2.0%, Soluble Potash 4.0%, Calcium 4.0%, Sulphur 2.0% and magnesium 1.0%. Then it says with lobster, kelp and worm castings 5-2-4. While I did not find Cal Mag, I bought this as was wondering A, can I use this? B, can I use this in place of something? C, I use General Organics as my nutrients now. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Oh and does anyone know if any of the big box stores sell Cal Mag, I am completely out. The store I usually purchase my nutes from is closed on Mondays and is an hour and a half away.
I can’t answer on the soil but cal mag can be bought on amazon. Cal Mag might be at Walmart of Kmart but I have never looked for it there myself as the local hydro store near me has it or I get it online.
Maybe @Majiktoker or @garrigan62 or @Aquaponic_Dumme can advise you on that soil which looks good to me, but I’m a bit of a newbie on some of this stuff and soil is one of them.

A. Yes you can use certainly wouldn’t recommend for seedlings though. B. Can you use it in place of something? What are you trying to replace? And C. I use advanced nutrients, and honestly dont know much about what nutrients your are using
I have the soil taken care of, currently I am using ProMix . Found it at my local nursery, I will be going back to Fox Farms for my next grow and I ordered some Cal Mag off of amazon, it should be here a day or 2, I was just trying to find some in a quick pinch. Thanks tho.

@Majiktoker, I wasn’t really trying to replace something per say, just didn’t know if I could, which doesn’t make sense Im sure, I just know that I am getting ready to send my ladies to flower this upcoming weekend and since I am going to start using the flowering nutes, I didn’t know if something could be replace with this Coast of Maine product. I am thinking I will not replace this Coast of Maine stuff with anything related to my ladies, I am however going to test this stuff next month when I start actual veggie seeds , I was reading the bag and it says to add it to the soil before planting seeds. Thanks for your response
