Mephisto Genetics Sour Orange Livers nute line battle. MEGA CROP vs AN with Air injection

Day 7 from seed. Both looking good. I made up a new Jug of MC with 3g per gal. 1g of Calmag pro and 1g of Sweet Candy. This brought the mix to .8 EC. The pH was 6.3. I will let it sit over night and recheck pH for any fluctuations, first time using Sweet Candy too. I have a feeling with my water I will be 6.4-6.5 with 4-5g later. I will add a little down if that is the case. Will turn on domes in a couple days and snap pictures then. Peace, slow.
 
I rechecked the water, it is 6.2. I fed a little and will turn on Airdomes tomorrow. The AN girl is catching up, but the base nutes mix is stronger than MC. I have a feeling I may have to bump up the MC feed with the Airdomes. But I will use this jug for a couple days and see how things look. I have Sweet Candy in this jug. It raised the EC just a tad.
 
I think I will run the Airdomes for a few days and make a 4g MC jug with 1g per gal Calmag pro and 1g of Sweet Candy. I want to know the strength. That is the strength they suggest for veg. My AN base nutes and Calmag are 1.0-1.1 EC. I assume the 4g mix will put me close to that. I will try it on my Sour Crack seedlings then too.
 
Hooked domes up. I can see a slight color difference in the 2. I am upping my MC feed today. AN has better color. MC is lighter in color, will raise MC feed first before adding more Calmag pro.

Btw, those are the Sour Crack seedlings. I am going to hook the smallest one up to the Airdome today. Day 3, way sooner than ever. I want to see how soon I can hook them up, I usually wait 10 days or so. But I think it will spark them even faster done earlier. I will use the small one to prove it's speed, it is behind...so we should expect it to be ahead in a few days.
 
Just made more water. 4g per gal of MC and 1g Calmag pro and 1g Sweet Candy. pH was 6.0. which concerns me, the pH has been higher, now it is lower at 4g. I added a drop of up to make it 6.2. The EC is 1.0, much closer to the AN base nutes and Cal-Mag. I will be making a 3gal jug next time. I have just been making 1 gal to test these plants out. I want to see how a bigger jug does to hold pH and how well it stays mixed up. I don't trust MC pH yet, but I don't even check AN pH anymore.
 
Weight is more accurate, that is how you should measure all powders. That Calmag pro is chunky as hell. Spoons allow for voids and different weights.
I just use 1/4 or 1/2 tsp and flatten with card agree the CMP is very chunky.

I'm sure I will get to that point. However, this is for experimental and I want to know exactly how it stacks up against AN. I use Coco, what medium are you using? Thanks
