• Wear gloves and eye protection when handling powder
• Avoid inhaling dust—use in well-ventilated areas or wear a dust mask
• Wash hands thoroughly after handling

• Store in a cool, dry place in the original sealed container
• Hygroscopic—absorbs moisture from air. Reseal tightly after each use
• Keep out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources
• Keep away from children and pets

• Always add Cal-Mag to water FIRST before other nutrients to prevent precipitation
• Never mix concentrated Cal-Mag directly with concentrated sulfate or phosphate fertilizers
• Dissolve in warm water for fastest results—do not use boiling water
• Avoid contact with metal surfaces—rinse equipment after use

• Eye contact: Flush with clean water for 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation persists
• Skin contact: Wash affected area with soap and water
• Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Contact Poison Control (1-800-222-1222) or seek medical attention
• Inhalation: Move to fresh air. Seek medical attention if symptoms persist

Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) in the Documents section for complete safety information.

Powder costs 50–70% less per dose, ships with 90% less weight, never expires when stored dry, takes less storage space, and lets you adjust concentration based on your water quality. You pay for nutrients, not water.

It depends on your water hardness. Test your water EC: below 0.3 EC needs Cal-Mag, while hard water above 0.5 EC may already contain enough calcium and magnesium. Get a water report from your utility for exact levels. For more on nutrient management, see our Complete Hydroponic Nutrient Guide.

Yes. Mix 5 ml of stock solution per gallon and spray at dawn or dusk when stomata are open. Foliar feeding provides rapid correction of visible deficiencies. Avoid spraying in hot sun and stop foliar applications 2 weeks before harvest.

Absolutely. Coco coir's cation exchange sites naturally bind calcium and release sodium in its place, creating deficiencies even with calcium-rich tap water. Use Cal-Mag every watering at 5–7.5 ml/gal and pre-buffer new coco with 10 ml/gal solution. Learn more in our Coco Coir Growing Tips & Best Practices article.

Calcium deficiency shows as blossom-end rot, brown spots, and tip burn. Magnesium deficiency causes yellowing between leaf veins on older leaves. Iron deficiency appears as yellowing of new growth. Prevention is always easier than correction. For help identifying symptoms, see Understanding Calcium & Magnesium Deficiencies.

Calcium precipitates (forms white insoluble solids) when mixed directly with concentrated sulfates or phosphates. Adding Cal-Mag to water first dilutes it sufficiently so that when you add subsequent nutrients, concentrations never reach precipitation thresholds.

A properly stored stock solution in a sealed container lasts 2–4 weeks. If you see any cloudiness or precipitate forming, discard and make a fresh batch. The dry powder itself has an indefinite shelf life when kept sealed and dry.
