Nitro toxicity and calcium deficiency. Should I flush?

Little pas halfway through flower and appears I have nitro toxicity, could this be a cause of my calcium deficiency I have been dealing with? Should I flush it or would that continue the degradation of the calcium? The spotting has gotten worse then my pictures

Usually when I see toxicity and deficiency at same time it is a sign of not enough run off at watering. Which causes a build up of salts in the soil from fertilizer. This can also cause big ph spikes in the substrate. Plus in flowering the npk ratio is 1-2-3. The spotting you are seeing is actually a potassium deficiency. I can clearly see minor to aggressive signs in your pictures of potassium deficiency. From discoloration to burnt straight tips then it goes to spots. If I was you I would change the ratio of what I am feeding, and check the run off ph. Potassium is the most important over all nutrition in the plant. Vegging npk ratio is 3-1-2 also for future reference. I think clearly it is just a improper diet for the stage of growth. She is in heavy bulking, and starving for lots of potassium and phosphorus to develop the colas and make them potent and dense. Too much nitrogen also hinders bud development in flowering. So hopefully this helps, and it should solve your issue.

I have been using fox farm big bloom and grow big at half their recommended dosages for the time of this grow. Started using cal mag two weeks ago cause I saw the spotting on the leaves What should my first course of action be. To flush? To wait till next feed schedule and give less after checking out what the nutrient levels in those feeds are? I don’t water to much run off at all so the built up minerals makes sense as this nitro toxicity came up after only using water and cal mag. But I watered it twice as much as normal for runoff into see if that would help anything what I thought was my cal mag deficiency

Absolutely excess N will eventually lock out Calcium.

Looks like leaf septoria, yellow spots turn brown and finally put a hole through the leaf. Spreads quickly
