More calcium is better! It's the metabolism engine of the plant. It also helps resist pest and disease pressure. Just make sure you plug the new numbers into Hydrobuddy when working with the new numbers.@BillFarthing What's your take on the CalNit product below. I wanted to give Haifa's Cal Prime a try but no stock anywhere. I found this product below that's available. I'm a noob when it comes to this stuff but product below looks very comparable to Cal Prime.
Technaflora soluble seaweed extract or Ferti-Organic soluble kelp.Maybe I missed it but what are some good brands for kelp? I got some Kelp it Real on the way. But it’s kind of a unknown as to production and sourcing. Also it’s powdered.
Thanks man! I was gonna buy the technaflora but seen the growganica brand and ordered. Not sure how one would know if any good. I did just get my Mr Fulvic delivered. Very happy I sen your posts. Way better than Fulpower for price and all the goodies within.Technaflora soluble seaweed extract or Ferti-Organic soluble kelp.
Loved the info here- Is Mr. Fulvic supposed to provide some sort of beneficial Mycorrhizae? I was going to Go with Jacks, Cal Nit, Epsom Salts, Silica, and Mr. Fulvic, Top drip drain to waste coco coir crop steering. Was wondering if I needed any bennies added to this mix?
Jacks is by weight, not volume. I can tell your ratios are off by the amount you are using.I’ve been using this recipe for my past 2 grows. I’m early into flower (3 weeks) this time around but I’m seeing a lot of brown spotting on my leaves. Here’s a sample
View attachment 1163618
(thoroughly mixed in this order)
in Flower (per gallon of water):
PowerSi Bloom - 2 ml
Mr. Fulvic - 1 ml
Jacks Part a - 1/2 tsp
Epsom Salt - 1/4 tsp
Jacks Part b - 1/2 tsp
in Veg:
same but PowerSi Original - 1 ml
again - I’m seeing these in both Veg and Flower. Anyone else seeing these spots with the recipe?

Calcium is most important at transition going into flower.I use Jacks Nutrient Schedule w/ the Outdoor 18-8-23 (based off the old jacks pro 20-10-20 peat lite) anyways, the schedule says to switch to the Bloom Booster 10-30-20 for the first week or two of flower but the Bloom Booster has no calcium, do you guys add any?
So, that’s what I thought, but I have a scale so I measured:Jacks is by weight, not volume. I can tell your ratios are off by the amount you are using.
Also, do you check your input and runoff pH?
You have basically been giving your plants too much Calcium and Nitrogen which causes uptake problems with the Macro Nutrients. NPK. I would low the temperature and light level until you see the new grow coming out nice and green and then start to feed them based on the instructions..So, that’s what I thought, but I have a scale so I measured:
1/2 tsp hydro = 3.5 g (calls for 3.6 g per gallon)
1/2 tsp calnit = 3 g (calls for 2.4 g per gallon)
1/4 tsp Epsom = 1.5 g (calls for 1.2 g per gallon)
so, I’m only 0.1g off on the hydro (part a). I’m 0.6 g high on calnit and 0.3 g high on mag.
If I’m high on both cal and mag, would this be a deficiency? I did notice one thing on the instructions. The order is: Silica > Calnit > hydro > mag where I’m mixing the calnit last. Could that make that big of a difference?
recommendations? The spots don’t rub off. Seems more frequent among my plants now. How high should I go on the calnit and Epsom?
thank you!!!!

I’m 3 weeks into flower. I’ll flush and back way down for a week or just feed ph’d waterYou have basically been giving your plants too much Calcium and Nitrogen which causes uptake problems with the Macro Nutrients. NPK.

they must be getting enough from my tap water and the lime/gypsum in the media. I am on week 4 and they are beautifulCalcium is most important at transition going into flower
Oh please do sharethey must be getting enough from my tap water and the lime/gypsum in the media. I am on week 4 and they are beautiful
Are you using Jack’s (without part b)?they must be getting enough from my tap water and the lime/gypsum in the media. I am on week 4 and they are beautiful
