My runoff ppm is almost double what I'm putting so should I give a plain/calmag watering? Ph is within range.
I water with nutes every other day. Ppm going in is 750. Tonight runoff came out around 1150. I'm on day 21 and plants are looking great.
 
You could rinse it with some plain RO with kind of Flora Kleen once a week and on top of that give rich tea every time and best if every time it's with 20-30% runoff. This would be exactly your ppm levels now, that is a bit extreme and coco - specific, and that is worth to do :D
As for CalMag only - if you see that your plant is darker than normal - you can water it with RO and some CalMag only that time.
 
You will be forever chasing your tail watching run off in coco. Just make sure you get 10% and dont let it sit in the run off, always keep the coco moist.

best of luck

What kind of Coco?
 
I ran into the same issue with coco. Turned out it was getting too dry between my daily feeding. Not only did that cause my runoff ppm to skyrocket but my ph also dropped dangerously low. Once I made sure the coco stayed moist everything balanced out.
