coco will take a share of the calcium and magnesium and replace it with potassium. feeding to run off helps remove the excess potassium and avoids calcium and magnesium lockout , if the coco has enough of its own calmag then it won't steal it. always calmag and low ppm for flushing never ever plain water

I liked coco for a bit but have fallen in love with perlite as a medium , seems to provide alittle less speed of growth but easier to water hempy style. you really can't over water 100 perlite, but I keep learning and now might shift to promix on top perlite in the res. coco does vary from distributor, perlite pretty much always the same and way cheaper
I am looking for what I like most....just trying different methods of madness. DWC was great until I was topping off over 10 gallons a day. Soil is my fav so far but like I said, getting ready to try my hand at coco. May even give perlite a run down the road.

I'm pretty much doing the same , anything to get away from lugging soil , plus perlite is so light its easy to tell when to water
