Welcome to AFN :styles rasta:
How much calmag did you add bro ?. At this stage you will only need a fraction of the bottle recommendation & thats just to buffer the water .A couple of ml per gal in the res 1st should be enough to do that & your PPM should be somewhere between 50-100 .Once thats mixed well for an hour or two add the UC ROOTS & finally equal part of the A&B veg to a PPM of around 250 total maybe .Then set your PH to 5.8 & try to keep it there or just below for the next couple weeks .Best not to let it go over 6.0 if you can help it at this early stage .

If you did put lots of calmag in ,like the full bottle dose or something, then you need to dump the res as it will burn the seedling & cause all sorts of problems :goodluck::Sharing One:

EDIT...heres the site chart & it say at the top 0.5-1ml PER GAL of calmag for RO water http://cch2o.com/feeding-schedule/
