Cal-mag deficiency?

PenguHBstarted grow question 4y ago

Hi guys, I think it's magnesium deficiency (early flowering). I have also noticed a few small burnt spots on the leaves. Is this time for cal-mag? Or am I reading this wrong?

I would add some cal mag,, I add about 3mil per gallon. I won't won't go more than that unless your growing an Indica dominant strain. Make sure your pH is around 6.3. She should bounce back in a couple days.

Thank you but I am not sure calmag is helping much, it has been on it for 3 days now. I have been adding ph- to my feed and bringing the solution to 5.8 ph. And yes, this is indica dominant.

If you’re using RO water then yeah for sure but if you’re not i’d be sure your water PH is good, your temps are in range, that your feed still has some nitrogen and not so much potassium that it blocks the nitrogen uptake. Adding some cal/mag probably isn't going to hurt either way.
