im just guessing, but maybe the calmag
or the coir.
ive always worried about coir, then again im paranoid, and like to make my own anything if i can... but havent made my own coco coir. anyway, theres good info on coir and maybe you can find out where yours is coming from maybe even as specific as the farm, and know exactly what youre dealin with
they obviously have to do a major wash to remove all/most of the saline perhaps some that are more geared toward bulk farming dont pay as much attention to the saline content, as a smaller private farm

its always nice to pick up those little additives, and whatnot
they make the grow if you ask me
adding a small amount of calmag, kelp, and myco(and maybe a couple other things) to EVERY watering. even flushes
