Cal Mag and Soil (Autoflowering)

HerbLady420
HerbLady420started grow question 3 years ago
When growing autos in soil like Fox Farms Ocean Forest, what amount of Cal Mag do you use? I feel as though my last grow, giving Cal Mag at every feeding was too much. This grow, I plan to see if once a week is enough.

When growing in decent soil with good pH and using proper cannabis nutrients, I only ever give two or three doses of cal/mag during early flowering as a "preventative" and never seem to suffer any deficiencies of cal/mag. I do however add blood and bone meal to my soil mix, which is a good source of calcium and also add volcanic rock dust, which is loaded with trace elements and also has good amounts of magnesium and silica. Cal/mag supplemental feeding is far more essential when growing in coco coir, it seems to bind them up and make it difficult for the plant to access them. I would suggest that giving extra cal/mag every 2-3 weeks would be more than enough in decent soil. Hope this helps, Organoman.

Yeah I’m no soil expert- I run soilless mediums but have used FFOF plenty and wouldn’t be doing calmag with every feed. I’d only use it if showing signs of mag or cal deficiency personally
