That's more for a soil grow. If you are soilless, and using a 'hydro' nute line, which any "for coco" product should be inferring, the nutrients are already chelated and ready for use by the plant. if it's not chelated and plant viable out of the box it's not really "for coco"... it's for soil, cause that's the substrate that will come loaded with the microbes needed to break down molecules that contain what is needed, but unuseable in current form. sugars feed the microbes in your substrate, which are more important for soil grows and certain fertilizers specifically for soil. you don't need help with uptake of this or that, because it's already broken down into 'a' useable part. if you can find research that says this sort of stuff also benefits a hydro or soilless grow, then i wouldn't argue with that... until i see something like that, there's definitely reason to at least assume some sort of loss of benefit due to the things mentioned above. your plant doesn't use those sugars. at best, the rhizosphere will, but it's not being relied upon for more than competition of resources to keep bad microbes away in a soilless substrate

Hi Bobo, You can use Sugar Royal at the ratio 1ml per liter starting from second week of vegetation until the flush time at the end of the grow. Keep in mind that you can use every nutrient in every different medium. You just have to feed properly and don't overuse your fertilizers. Only combination I won't recommend for every strain is using coco based fertilizers in pre-fertilized soil like light mix and all mix. Besides this, you can use soil nutes for hydro or hydro nutrients for coco. Each strain prefers a different ratio of the fertilizers and minerals. A Coco based fertilizer can perform better on a particular strain growing in pre-fertilized soil. This can also happen rarely but nobody can know which strain will react to which nutrient before growing that particular one. Stick with familiar strains and measure pH&EC. You'll be just fine. Add whichever supplement you want but at a mild ratio. Don't exceed 1.8EC in flowering and 1EC in vegetation. Hope these will help. Best 💪
