You are growing the clone in coco or DWC?

You could use regular hydroponic nutrients in coco but you may be more likely to need to supplement calcium. Likewise, you could use coco tailored/specific hydroponic nutrients in DWC likely without issue.

I have been using CNS17 coco formula in DWC because the coco formula contains more calcium and I like the NPK ratio better than with their regular hydroponic formula.

Not sure that answers your question as I'm not really clear on what you are doing.

I'm doing my first dwc and all I use so far in veg is 3 part gh nutes ro water and cal-mag , just mix nutes once a week with cal-mag then top off every other day and my plant is going like a weed. Honestly don't get caught up in all the nute hype . I your tring to maximize yield there are ten other things ahead of nutes and ph . Lights , rotation , topping , ventilation , jjust to name a few ,

I'm having less issues with CNS17 also, besides at 10-12 bucks/qt; cheap
...for GH I think its H3ads formula using a 2pt 6/9 variation of Lucas
...tried Canna Coco...stuff is expensive over the long haul ....
