Is this definitely CalMag deficiency? Check diary for video.

Before I go to over the top with the CalMag in a stupid attempt to nurse my plants back to health I just want to know for certain what it is. The leaves are clawing, bronze spots everywhere but the smallest of the 3 doesn't seem to be suffering as much.. what is it?!

Could very well be calmag issues. Adding some more won't hurt. It really looks like N toxicity to me though. Dark green leaves that started to polka dot along with the clawing seems clear to me. Wind burn is another possibility if you have a fan directly on them. Add calmag, cute down any N-heavy nutes, and pull off any direct air currents. You got this, the fun is just starting!

Please before doing anything, give enough water so you have runoff. Check the first little bit of that runoff water to see what your ph and ec are at. Ph is normally the culprit and if the ph is ok then see if your ec is low or high. If it's in a good range, then and only then give her what you think she needs. Going overboard on cal/mg if it isnt really needed only creates more problems. Cheers friend

Also, while I haven't used those nutes before, it looks like you're feeding really heavy. Your ppms should be between 700-900 now. Get a cheapo EC meter if you don't have one. You can get one for less than $10USD.

In regards to what amount, if you have a ppm meter I rock 150ppm of calmag. The bottle will also have directions on it as well. Cheers,

Heya MrGreen92, Indeed it is. I would use a little calmag next watering unless you know your pH is off. If your pH is off the plant won’t be able to uptake nutrients at certain levels. I see you’re using soil, for soil we want to maintain a pH of 6-7. This was the first deficiency I ran into when I used basic soil mixes. Cheers and good luck!
