Thats a good post +rep after i post this... I have never had an iron issue either then again ive never used a mag drive pump in anything other then the uc either thats why I figured i would give it a shot with the grounding probes. Thats a good post though.Emailed the guys at Botanicare today about the Cal Mag/Mag drive issue this is what they responded with...
"Thank you for your interest in our Cal-Mag product! The claim is that the magnetic coil which causes the impeller in the pump to rotate can cause iron to become trapped inside of the pump. In reality, the water is moving through the pump so fast, and the individual particles of iron are so small that this probably never happens. This statement was put on the bottle just to inform users of the possibility of this happening. I would honestly not be concerned about it, I have used cal mag extensively and never seen any accumulation of iron in the pumps I have taken apart. I hope this answers your question, but if not please feel free to contact us for more information!"

You know.. if you're suspecting the magdrive pump as the culprit, just turn it off. Honestly, the airstones put enough oxy in the roots anyway. This would give you something to compare too.
Or else just run whatever size pump you were using in your RDWC to give you the results you like.
Lmao! This is gotta be a joke?? Right??

This is the small room @ 1 week 3 days from clone... I played around at first with adding just epsom and no calmag and 4ml aqua flakes a&b + mulitzen & roots excel @ 1ml/gallon... needless to say it didn't work I added 3ml calmag per gallon diluted into a gallon of ro water and slowly fed into the epi and it cleared that shit right up they are definitely back on track but its still missing that softness and that shine im looking for...

mo or phup: just wondering ,have u tried magic green? i get a better health/look to them when i use it compared to when i dont..
THANK YOU!!! Somebody finally agrees and knows what im talking about!!! Man I have been trying to hit that shine for the last year and a half now it just wont come for some reason. They always look good but never at that pentacle your speaking of. Man thank you again I knew I wasnt crazy lol.[/QUOTE]I swear to god you are sneaking into my room and taking pictures of my Bubbas....Mine look good, as do yours, but I can't seem to get that glossy leaf shine I'm looking for. HOWEVER, I have had it once with this same strain in my existing system but unfortunately at the time I was so busy that I wasn't keeping a grow log for those weeks! At least I know its possible and gives credence to the theory that this is simply a nutritional issue.
